not to long ago a heat lamp of mine hit the back right foot of my beardie.
it made a little cut, it swelled up bit. so i put some hydrogen peroxide on it so it wouldnt get infected.
today i noticed that the damaged scales on his toe are coming off.
a few were black, but no discharge drained, it seems dry.
i freaked out and washed it with warm water.
hydrogen peroxide.
alcohol.
and used some antibacterial on it.
im super worried.
and i dont want anything bad to happen to him.
hes kept at the right temperatures.
eats fine.
poos fine.
has alot of spunk, but it still worries me.
hes housed on paper towel.
and i plan on keeping it that way.
ive been disenfecting the tank everyday.
but i cant afford a vet.
there are no exotic and reptile vets any where near where i live.
so either way id be outta luck.
any suggestions on how to keep it clean so it heals?
it doesnt seem to bad, its just a little swollen.
but the scales coming off around the area is what freaked me.
do you think it will heal soon?
or will it take awhile?
im in no rush, but i hate to see my little guy hurt.
i dont have a camera at the moment.
but ill be getting pics of it soon.
thank you so much in advance.
