Iguana lost a claw:(

[attachment=4716]So today i was getting my iguana out of his cage and of course he was freaked out and when i finally got him out there was something wrong with his claw. I was feakin' out.. The end of his finger and claw were almost detached. I mean it looked horrible, it was like mangled and upside-down and only hanging on by a ligament. It was also grey so my dad and I decided to just clip it off. Suprisingly it was like there was absolutely no feeling in it.

Anyway, and precautions I should follow for it to heal?

Much thanks- Vanessa

Do you know how he injured himself in the first place? If you can figure that out and correct it, it will be a huge step.

I use this stuff called Vetericyn on all of my animals for wounds, irritations, fungus, mites, or really anything. Amazing stuff. It is available in liquid spray or gel spray. I get it at the feed store or online.
