Symptoms
- raw spots on head/snout
Cause
- hungry
- looking for a mate
- enclosure too small
- not enough places to hide
- mites
Treatment
If your Dum has developed any raw spots on its head, flush the wound with diluted chlorhexidine or iodine and treat with a triple antibiotic ointment like Neosporin (not the pain-relief formula). If all other factors have been ruled out, consider getting a larger enclosure and/or providing more enrichment items (loose substrate, additional hides, etc).
