Ok so this morning one of my big males decided to taste my finger.

He bit me quite hard, broke the skin and caused some bleeding.

I cleaned the wound and applied and anti-bacterial.

Should I go and get a tetanus shot?

thanks

I don't think its necessary, cleaning it well and applying neosporine should be all you need to do for it. I've been bit by a big male before too, healed right up in a couple days.

Thanks Gail.

I was just a bit worried, I've been bitten before but never had the skin broken.

I will keep an eye on it.

Do you know what the time frame (allowance) is between acquiring the wound and getting the shot? (Should I need it)

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?

Hi there a little update we went from a 50 watt heat lamp to a 100 watt basking halogen heat lamp hahaha I saw some comments about it being so close so I made sure to put it a ruler away from her
Has anyone seen this before? Something in the corner of his mouth
