Mr. Blues nose

Postby Wilsonnnn » Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:19 pm

Hey all, first time posting in here so I'm hoping I do it right, my NBT Blue has been developing a weird red mark on his nose and has been sneezing a lot. I am starting to become worried as I'm a overly paranoid person. However I was wondering if someone could take a look at a picture of his nose and give me a general idea of what I'm getting into. I will 100% do anything to insure my BTS's health however money is really tight until next pay and I want to make sure this is a urgent issue if I am taking him to the vet. See picture to see the discoloration it is only a smaller spot that looks a little pinkish raw.

He's knocked the nose tip scale off .... he'll be fine.

Sneezing :
<< either loose stuff inside his nostrils
or
<< substrate too dry and dusty ?

I agree, it's not to worry about, just keep an eye on it. Have you noticed that he's been rubbing his nose and face on the glass of the enclosure? They sometimes get rubbing marks which look a bit like this.
