Tilly's Nails

[joeandsoph]

How long are my female veiled's nail supposed to be and do I need to clip them. I thought I didn't but they seem to be really long!

 

[beeze]

Do not clip them. They will not grow back. They need to be long and sharp for digging to lay eggs.

 

[Miss Lily]

I agree - she'll wear them down a bit when she's digging to lay. Poor Lily wore hers down to stumps when she was laying and they were never the same again.

My cham's are super long too. Everytime she climbs up my arm my skin gets irritated.

Sometimes she's pierced my skin. They seem to have grown so long. She did break one a while ago but it's almost grown back to the size of the others. She doesn't seem interest in laying again yet...
