Thank you for your reply - it's very helpful. Yes, I think it is just below the scales and mid-skin (some odd scales are missing) - it's just pink where the scales are missing. He does still have water - just that he can't get in it (I thought if it was kept dry it would heal quicker). No rotten smell, pus or cloudy drainage (just a little and it was clear) so sounds normal. Just abnormal is the fact it seems to be taking a long time than it should to heal (first time this has ever happened to him).



Monday today so I am ringing the vet and hopefully get an appt today. I am going to ask him to do a fecal float (if he produces one for me today) and run bloodworks to see if there's any reason for the slow healing process (i.e. like Frank said maybe, possibly an impaired immune system).



Thank you very much to you guys for your replies to this.
