On Friday night I was removing a dry hide that was much too small for Geek - once I picked it up - i saw Geek was under it and just there after - it slipped from my grip.
It happened so fast, I dont know if it actually hit him and I screamed like you wouldnt believe.
I then grabbed the dry hide (which was man made and VERY heavy) and pulled it out of his house - meanwhile he scooted to the other side of the home and started twitching his tail and turning in circles.
He kept tasting his tail during this time. About 2 minutes later he went into his other dry hide. 45 minutes later he was in the same area but had turned around - awake and alert.
When I checked on him about an hour later he was under his "shelf hide" - awake, alert as before
6 hours later - same thing
Its been 5 days since then and tonight is the first time I have been able to observe him outside of his hides. I am alarmed at the condition of his tail!
I know they drop thier tails etc but I am not sure what to think or do now - or even if I need to do anything
Please help Geek and I
He is cruising around with no issues that I can see.....what should I do?
