I had just changed his bulb & while trying to re-clamp it onto the side, it fell right on him from about 6in. Obviously scared him to death & he took off running but dragged his right back leg. It's been about 30mins now & he is very alert & has not had a black beard at all but is not using the leg. He ate a few crix even tho it wasn't feeding time. I am currently waiting on my husband to put money in the bank so I can make the hour and half drive to the closest herp vet. He is so pitiful. I haven't stopped crying & bawling cause I feel I have killed my baby. I checked him out after it happened & the leg is just completely limp. I'm not sure if it's broken or out of socket, probably broken. Hes very small, 9in & 25g so i really feel there is more damage then just the leg. There's absolutely nothing I can do til my husband gets a chance to swing by the bank & put in the money I need just for the exam. I seen other threads of the same thing happening & either they didn't make it thru the night or passed a day or two later, even after going to the vet. I am EXTREMELY attached to him. I hope I get him help on time.
