Hey so my little bluie shed for the first time today since owning him, he is still young just under a month old, the tip of his tail has always been a bit odd as the last millimeter bent to the side, well today while shedding the tip of it has come off with his shedding, maybe half a millimeter to a millimeter of it, i know they can lose there tails and i know he is in no danger but is there any special treatment i should give him such as certain foods and put him in a temporary home without substrate so it doesn't get stuck to the tip? will be uploading a couple pictures as soon as i can.
Cheers, Nicholas.

Re: Tip off tail came off
Hi there, Easterns often have a scale that sticks out the end of the tail when young which often drops off when they get older, no special treatment required.
If you wait, all that happens is that you get older. M. Andretti
