Bleeding snout

Nova had a chunk of what looked like old shed buildup on the tip of her snout. My others have had it, so I assumed that's what it was. Well, she spends most of her days surfing, begging to get out, sliding her nose across the glass. Yesterday I saw she was digging her face into her hide, scratching it and when I looked, the shed/scale was coming off but it's bleeding underneath. Did she manage to partially rip off a legit scale.?? It's only bleeding in that one tiny spot and only a little, it's not even seeping around the edges or anything. do we leave it alone? Take her to the vet to have it removed.? It doesn't seem to be bothering her too much because she still does her face digging into the glass to be let out and ifnit does bother her, she doesn't act like it.

These squirrely buggers can drive us crazy sometimes ! It's just a wee spot, like us cutting our fingertip or lightly scratching our lip or something. Just put a dab of raw honey on once a day, even more if she licks it off right away.

Okay, I'll definitely have to try that. She's just about ripped it off being a nutjob but it really doesn't seem to bother her all that much, thankfully

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
