Glad the shed all came of easily without incident.



It's hard to say for absolute sure, but I think it's just from previous tissue damage that is now uncovered and able to heal. If you REALLY closely examined the shed(even if it required a magnifying glass) to see that the "crusty" part of the stalk area you mentioned was completely shed along with the rest in one piece, I'd say things are looking up. Hopefully this is the case. Maybe some antibiotic ointment pressed into that area with your finger will help it out some too.



Hope things continue on the right track with it. Just keep paying VERY CLOSE ATTENTION to those areas that everything comes completely off in ONE piece, and I'd say things will be just fine in another shed or two.
