Thank you for the advise, it's much appreciated. I'll be making a vets appointment first thing.
I can't see how any trauma could have happened, he's happy in his enclosure all day where I don't believe there's any cause for injury.
Hopefully the vet will be able to shed a little more light on...
Thanks for all your help Lyn, I'll be making a vets appointment in the morning as others seem to agree it could be a split beak.
I'll also take a good look at your recommendations and make sure the set-up is as it should be.
Thanks Mark & greetings to you too. We don't soak as such. There is a flat water bowl in the enclosure that Tortilla 'wanders through' now and again and we spray the top soil each morning. It doesn't appear to be causing any bother at the moment but I'll look into possibility of getting it taken...
Hi Lyn, thank you for coming back so promptly
To be honest, I don't know how long it's been like that but I'd say it can only have developed in the past month or so and I've only noticed it today! From many angles you can't tell that it's actually sticking out.
It feels hard, I've just tried to...
Hi,
Tortilla is a 15month old Herman and generally very alert & healthy. I have noticed a scale appears to be growing at the wrong angle on the side of the head.
Do I need to worry about it? It doesn't appear to be causing any discomfort or inconvenience.
Many thanks, Jane
