Okay when I got Blaze 10 months ago he had some sort of head injury, could see his purple skin which I'd put down to a burn/excessive rubbing before he came to me (too small to get a pic) not caused him a problem but have noticed he's got some peely skin around this area... he shed about 3 weeks ago.

What can I do? there is a scale there, a little bit is coloured and the rest is this wierd purple colour.. was a good lad let me examine it closer, and it is smooth...

Am in complete confusion..

Reason I asked is he came to me with it, and has just gone red.. unless thats the new scales underneath? taken a long time for it heal though.. near a year.

Cheers Matty, I didn't guarantee perfect pics.

Thats not a burn, hes just rubbed his head. I wouldnt even clean it now, it looks fine (though the photos arnt great .

Isn't F10 disinfectant?

Anyway heres some pics.



not the best, am sorry. Note in the second picture I am in no way trying to hurt him, I just restrained him otherwise I couldn't get a good pic, I'm not some big dumb oaf as to break something.

The red dot has appeared after his recovery shed, which he shed last night...

I told my step mum I may have o get him checked out; her response: "He'll be alright"...

It's not bleeding or seeping, and the skin must be strong, as it's not broken in 10 months of me keeping him, doubt it will heal either..

Shall try to get a photo.. won't be brilliant.

Maybe knit a little bonnet for him- just incase he feels self conscious about it :P
