My beardie had a bleeding tongue today I noticed while she was feeding, it looks like a gash along it that looks indicative of a bite mark on her tongue. Any reason why she would have bite her own tongue, and what would I need to do to ensure no infection of any sort?
Should I hold off on feeding her for a day or two until it heals?
There are no lizard doctor petvets near me (those who watched castle frightenstein will get the doctor petvet comment )
It could Possibly have been an accident, I know I've bitten my tongue a lot of times while eating and other such activities, I've never heard of a BD biting their tongue due to anger or frustration, and I have no clue what to do or how to stop infection. Hopefully it will just heal up by itself ( It most likely will ).
