Hello,
My beardie ripped out her claw on her right front leg. It is the one right next to her "thumb". Compared to the same digit on her other hand, the injured one looks a little shorter and looks pretty raw. I'm not sure if it's just because the claw is missing or if some of her finger is missing too. I found the claw and it looked like it was ripped out clean; there was no skin, tissue or anything stuck to it. She must have pulled it out on one of the rock caves I made for her. She was definitly bleeding because there was a blood mark about half the size of a dime on the tile near one of the rocks (that's actually what I noticed first). Her behavior is exactly the same as usual, not favoring it or anything. You would think she was not in any pain at all. She must have done it while I was at work today. She is my first beardie and about 22 months old and has never been hurt or anything. I am upset over this and am not sure what to do. I read on the forums here about neosporin and bedtadyne solution. Should I apply these and how? Should I stick her hand in the betadyne solution or just apply it with a Q-tip? I have neosporin + pain relief. Is this ok to use? Thanks in advance for the help....
