Hey y'all! So yesterday afternoon we were sitting out on the driveway(as,usual) catching some rays when out of the corner of her eye she spotted a large black ant ?, probably carpenter, 5 feet away. She took off running and BAM! ran right into a rock wall! She got the ant, but tore up her bottom lip a little. She lost the scale on the tip of her lip and bled very little. I cleaned it and have been applying pure honey to the wound, which she licks right off!
I watched her closely after and she seemed fine, roaming around the house and eating as voraciously as ever at 6:00p. I was a little worried when I noticed her settling down for sleep around 7:00p, almost 3 hours before bedtime. Can beardies get concussions? Will she grow back her lip scale? She looks like she got in a fight, and lost!
Wow, I'm glad to tread that Kozmo didn't REALLY bite the dust ! She will be just fine....honey will do her good even if she licks it off and a small abrasion like that would even heal on it's own over time.
No concussion, she would have to knocked on the TOP of her head to do any brain damage. She might have gone to sleep early after having such an adventure filled day.
I agree, that should heal up in a little while. The honey will help too so keep applying it. My guy has done that in the past and gotten scraped up a bit and it tends to heal pretty quickly.
Should be just fine, its not a bad cut and will heal in time. Doubt she would have done any serious damage to herself and May have gone to bed early as feeling a bit sorry for herself.
