Hello,t
My Rexy is doing so much better in the pore area. You probably remember me from awhile ago showing pictures and stuff. That "problem" has been taken care of.
Next. The underside of Rexy's tail is still iffy. It had sore on his and was bleeding because of the removed dead skin. It still bleeds occasionally adn never seems to completely heal. I can't leave the scab on there too long or else it digs into and kills the tissue on his tail. Even when I take it off, it doesn't bleed. He either does soemthing, or when I soak him in water. It stars to bleed again. Any suggestions?
Now to the gecko toes. This is scary and I freaked out and started crying. Rex just shedded last night so as usual I was helping him with the skin he can never get off, such as his toes, front limbs, under belly, and on the face. Well his feet have been deformed for a bit it seems and when I was getting the skin off I noticed something. HE HAS NO TOES! I mean you can SEE the toes, they are there, but they are just tissue! I can squish them up and he doesn't even notice. Then the worst part was, there was a wad of skin stuck on the part where his one toe is missing. Once I removed it, I freaked because there was this little white thing there. IT WAS THE BONE!
I freaked out and called the vet. She told me that I'd have to cut the bone with clippers and with the rest of the tissue toes, to trim those down. I was like crying and said I couldn't do that to him b/c I was afraid it would hurt him. So she said just to let nature take its course and that it will fix itself. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT I'M EXPERIENCING???? My poor baby Rexy, he just has problems after problems. PLEASE ADVISE!!
