Tail kink

[aidenb]

I've noticed my panther seems to have a slight kink at the very end of his tail. It looks like he broke it but he's still able to curl it etc... It's just hangs like the pic when extended. He's a 7 months old nosy faly male.

I do not see your chameleon in this picture!

I think it's just it's tail, right above the plastic leaves in the left corner area, I think, could be wrong!

I see it sticking up out of the leaves now! Its like finding "Where's Waldo" lol. It just looks kinked like you said. We have a member on here who has a Veild named Kink for the exact same reason like your chameleon. It does not look infected or anything like that so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

This is him. He's perfectly healthy otherwise and his tail still curls normals and moves like it did before so I wasn't too worried but I wanted second opinions. He's also got much more for plants than in the pick. I just snapped one while I was getting stuff out back in.

Does it look like this?


He got this when he fell from a sharp-edged surface. He simply did not notice the end of the horizontal surface and walked straight into nothing. Then the last 1 cm of his tail stopped him from falling. His tail is like this since the accident. He can bend it, grab anything and does not seems like is hurting.

I was going to quote your first post with a Waldo, until I saw this. It took me a couple minutes to find the tail, also.

That's basically exactly what it looks like. I'll keep an eye on it but he seems fine.
