Oh my. I've never seen that before. As long as it's not bleeding I would think it will be ok. You can put a tiny dab of Neosporin on it. It seems like it would have taken a pretty big thump to bump it hard enough for that to come off. Poor little guy.

Of course, if you're really worried, you can always take him to the vet.

About a year ago that happened to one of my leopards, except it was both nose scales. There was never any blood and they grew back within a month.
