Unfortunately, my daughters dragon Spike somehow or other damaged one of her back toes. It looks like maybe a quarter of an inch is missing. We have her on shelf liner and we washed the foot (actually gave her a complete bath) and put antibiotic ointment on it.
It happened sometime Sunday. It isn't looking infected - but I was just wondering if there is anything else we can do besides keeping the cage/foot extra super clean and putting antibiotics on it?
I can't figure out how she did it - we have one of those half logs in the cage and two big climbing sticks (bought at pet store for lizards) for her to bask on - all I can figure is that she might have just got it caught in some nook-cranny on the sticks and ripped it - any ideas? Should I take the sticks out even though she loves climbing up on them and she actually sleeps on one of them!! Or should I wait and see if it happens again (God, I hope not - my daughter and I both cried even though Spike didn't seem too terribly bothered by it!)
Any thoughs/suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
