C) Problem
- Please briefly describe the problem and how long it has been going on
I was feeding the babies and I noticed the oldest hatchling bubblegum had her house torn up a bit, stuff pushed around etc. so I decided I'd pick her up to socialized and I noticed her front right hand was very swollen and red, with stuck shed halfway up to her elbow very thick. So I got a qtip and tweezers and got it off. IT looks bad! Her hand is still swollen and there's a dug in crease where the shed was! She's really favouring it by limping but is still using it. She's still eating and pooping, in a shoebox tub on paper towel, 2 hides a water dish and a calcium food bowl. Hot spot measures 93 by temp gun. I've included a pic and a recent pic of the setup as well. Thanks in advance!!
