No I don't mean like a claw. I will mention the tail to the vet too so he can check it when I go. I have rang a vet who is getting back to me on Monday because he had x rays done by a vet who was not a reptile vet so I want him to be checked by a reptile vet who knows what to look for. I will bath them both everyday until the vets appointment to see if that helps at all. Thanks for all your advice and help, I will let you know how it goes with the vet!
