Dead skin or a rot ?? Please help!!

ninategu Apr 25, 2006 08:55 PM

Nina has just recently woke up from brumation and i have noticed this either dead skin or rot on her body and tail. I'm am looking for some help in telling me what this is and how to fix it? She did get a bath today and it didnt come off. I have not tried the baby oil yet.

i cant really tell on the head shot, but the tail just looks like a piece of shed that is stuck

Give a good soak and apply Bacitracin or Neosporin a few times a day and it should fall off or heal up. Doesn't look bad.
Good luck.
