So long story short my adult western bts bite my finger (which he almost never does) and in instinctally pulling my hand back he came with it and fell on to the hardwood floor ~2 feet.
He surprisingly drew quite a bite of blood but I am more worried about him. I'd be heart broken if he was hurt in any way!!
I immediately put him back in his cage, and he is acting normal crawling around with no obvious limp or issue. But I'm still so worried. Is this something that can happen with no big issues or is this automatically something very dangerous???
Please advice, thank you!

Re: My Boy Took A Fall, Help!
They're pretty sturdy animals and can handle falls fairly well. Areas of concern would be the limbs which are delicate but if your skink isn't dragging any of its arms or legs or showing any signs of injury, you likely have nothing to worry about.
