blood after shed

[Anneliese]

my bp seems to be bleeding from the tip of his tail a little after shedding

will he be ok?

should i do anything for him

[python.princess]

i've never experienced this but if it was me, i would probably put some kind of antibiotic ointment on it: bacitracin, hydrocortisone, etc.

[Anneliese]

any other ideas anyone?

A few drops of blood seen at the vent area or on nearby bedding right at the time of shed isn't a problem. If it continues to bleed, looks nasty or in any way concerns you, then a call to your herp vet is a always a good idea.

Did u try to pull it off the un shedded skin off yourself? A friend of tried that and thats what happened
