Is your dragon housed with another dragon?
-Brandon
Thanks for responding Brandon, no it’s not housed with another dragon
Ok, I only asked because it looks like it has been chewed on. Is it possible that crickets left overnight could have done it? Is there anything in his tank he could have got it caught under? Or perhaps something happened while he was outside of his tank?
Either way, the tail should be kept clean to prevent any infection. That damaged part will most likely die and fall off, but you want to make sure to keep it clean so it heals properly and no secondary complications arise.
If you can get some bedatine you can make a weak solution of that to soak the tail in. Aim for the color of a light tea.
Raw unpasturized honey can also be applied to it to fight off bacteria. Just make sure there is nothing in the tank that might want to nibble on some sweet honey.
