Post pics if you have them. Triple antibiotic oientment is probally the best thing if it is not too bad. Apply once a day and make sure you clean his enclosure every day until it gets better (probally the next shed). If it is too bad you may need to make a vet trip for meds.

thanks, i will def post some pics tomarrow morning as i just fed him and dont wanna mess with him to much. im just lucky i caught it fairly early or i would be 1 less bp. and lucky that i had already ordered another tstat lastweek and should be here tomarrow some time. again thanks for the help. will make sure to keep him as clean as possible until i know for sure what it is.
