Help, my bearded dragon got bit. She has been living with my male for a long time but today they got in a fight. She was bit 3 inches up her tail. One almost severed area 1 inch up her tial and another 2 inches up. They were cut threw the bone and only hanging by the flesh. My father and I put iodine on it and made a splint and covered it with cloth bandages. Right now she is sleeping on my lap. What should I do?
P.S is there a way to get a picture?
You have to put the male in another tank immediately, even a large plastic tote from Walmart with lights rigged over the top if you don't have another set up. Raw honey is great on wounds , not grocery store honey but unpasteurized + raw from a health food store or beekeeper. It sounds like she will prob. lose part of her tail or need amputated possibly.
Thank you for your response my bearded dragon has bandages covering the wound so a picture won't help. I will get some raw honey and applying in the wound.
Oh that is too bad! Definitely try to get some raw honey to put on the end.
Have you placed her in her own tank now? They will need to be permanently separated now.
Are you taking her to the vet soon? You will need to carefully monitor the area to be sure it doesn't get infected.
How is she doing?
She is doing fine she is sleeping on my lap where it is warm. I will put her in her own tank. Idk if I will take her to the vet. My mom is a doctor and worked as a vet before so I will let her look at other when she comes home.
