[QUOTE="jkratman, post: 2043768, member: 80689"] Hi, Thanks so much for trying to help us. The smell is not as intense this morning, but the tail looks worse. I can see that the tissue is starting to shrivel and die and the injury point is more swollen. See attached. The emergency vets have not been willing to see him, unfortunately. I'm going to try again tomorrow. They say it will fall off, which seems very callous and uncaring. :-( My vet keeps slots open for emergencies, so I will be calling first thing Tuesday to bring him in. The issue is no exotic vets until then, including Fin's regular doctor. I'd say it's very likely he broke his tail, yes, but I don't know how or when. He does not seem to care if I touch his tail, which led me to believe (erroneously) that it wasn't badly injured. I first noticed the droop a few weeks back. :-( I feel terrible about this. HIs main staple is BSF, with occasional dubias, so no issue with bugs in the tank. Will do on keeping him warm. I'm glad you mentioned that as I was trying to ventilate out the tank so he wouldn't have to breathe in that stench, but it makes sense to keep him warm so I'll up the temps. As usual, Fin does not seem to care. I really hope he is not suffering. My poor little buddy. Thank you. John [/QUOTE]
