So I was worried I was neglecting Plinko because of the excitement of my new addition, so I looked for him in his tank. I didn't find him in his usual spots so I panicked, and reached into his rock hide instead of lifting it up. He bit my pinky hard enough to draw blood, and I dropped the rock hide on him in surprise. My pinky still hurts and he has a scrape on his face. All this cause I just wanted to hang out with him. Ugh.

So I put betadine and neosporin on it. It had a tiny bit of blood around it, but it really just looked like scraped off scales. I hope it heals quickly. I feel bad :(

I'm sorry to hear that you and Plinko got hurt. I do wonder why he bit you? Maybe you suprised him? Either way, it wasn't on purpose, and wounds heal :D

The only time he ever bites is if I reach my hand into his hide. He HATES when I do that. Other than that he's a completely docile little angel. So I was kind of asking for it, but I wasn't really thinking, either. :(

oh, thats both sad and funny. I can just imagine the surprise on both your faces! He should be ok, I mean, think about how rough breeding gets! However, keep an eye on it and if it starts looking odd, it never hurts to visit a vet.

I think he was prob just nervous and didn't know what was going on when a hand reached into his hide :/
