Burns?

[Metal725]

Picked up this little beauty at the Herp World Expo today. Couldn't pass her up on her color and super calm attitude. She appears to have what looks like a burn on her face and one of her toes. Other than that she seems to be in great health and ate 5-7 crickets and a couple Dubias when we brought her home. Any thoughts on the wounds?

Wow she is pretty! I can see why you did not want to pass her up! Not so sure they are both burns. The one on her lower lip might be from rubbing to get out of the cage and that is kind of an odd place for a burn on her foot unless she was hanging upside down under the basking light or something. If that were the case, she probably would not just be burned on that one little spot on her foot. This is just my opinion. For burns, I know Silver Sulfadiazine is good and that can also be used for other skin issues. Not knowing how she was kept, it is hard to tell for sure what happened. Is she missing a nail? There could be an issue with that spot and infected area if the nail was damaged.

That makes more sense now that you mention it. Her nail is fine so i was thinking it could be some old shed also. Thanks for the help.
