Today while my chameleon was out getting some sun, he got his stuck between two branches. When I got him out I noticed he had scraped some skin off of his veil. Not a big scratch at all. Is there anything I need to put on it or should I let it heal naturally?
That's been brewing for longer than a day. There is granulation tissue at the edges of the wound (that ridge of skin), which takes several days to form. I suspect the top of his casque might have been burned by his heat lamp and then the dead skin rubbed off on a branch yesterday because it was already damaged. Keep it clean and put neosporin on it twice a day and take him to the vet if it starts to look worse or has discharge.
