Hi, apologies in advance if this post is any wrong areas or a repeat, I’ve never posted on a website like this, just read the stuff.
Small backstory: my beardie is ~6.5 inches, and I’ve had him for a couple weeks. He’s my first one.
Last night while my beardie was sleeping I heard noise from the cage that sounded like him freaking out so I checked on him and he was sleeping in his house. I didn’t think anything of it and went back to sleep. This morning when his lights turned on I noticed he didn’t come out to go sit on his hammock/log like usual, so I checked on him and opened the house. His tail was ‘kinked’ under the house and he was just laying there. I immediately grabbed him carefully to check it out and took pics (I’ll try to attach...) my first reaction was ‘run to the vet!’ However after a quick google search, I’ve seen that the tail will just fall off and to put neosporin (with no pain relief, correct?) then if it progresses to see the vet.. would that be correct or is this more severe? My immediate concern is because of the fact that the tail still seems attached but is turning black where the mild disconnection is.
add on: I don’t know how to attach an image! So I’m gonna attempt but if it doesn’t work let me know
