    Problem with spurs near cloaca? Please help!

    Hello,

    I have had my BP for about 3 years and have never seen this before. He recently finished a shed and after giving him a couple of days to rest, I decided to take him out for a bit. I noticed one of the spurs near his cloaca looks strange. It looks like there's dry skin around the spur or something. I wanted to run it by some experts here to see what you think. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,

    Yes just a bit of stuck shed.

    Try licking your finger and rubbing it.

    Yea, it's nothing. Do what dr del said and you'll be fine. It happens sometimes.
