    Broken Spur?

    Ah sorry I am new to the forums and figured I would ask for some help.

    I noticed today that my boy was missing a spur? Theres a little nub where it used to be however.

    I looked over his terrarium and couldnt find it so I figure it came off during his last shed which was about two weeks ago now. Its not red or tender and there wasnt any blood. He does seem to be acting like his usual self but I just wanted to know if I should be concerned at all?

    You and your snake are fine to relax as usual.

    Oh thank you so much! My vet is away now and there arent too many here that deal with reptiles so I wanted to check around and see if this was something I should have been worrying about.

    He is my first snake so its pretty nerve-racking to discover something like this, despite having him for nearly three years now. Plus he was a rescue who came with mites and early stage mouth rot, so if anything unusual happens I worry a lot (to the point I think my vet is tired of seeing my number pop up on her phone.)
