She should be fine
I went to the vet (a reptile specialized one), the tail was much better, he said the rotten part will fall, but she will survive and should not have any infections. The tail is much more clean He also said she is fat and healthy.  |
Glad she is going to pull through.
And well done on getting her sorted and to the vet !! _________________ Regards, Paul.

Here is a photo of her today
You can see the tail is shorter, some of it has already fallen down. The rest should follow with no problems.
Hope her next shed goes well...  |

Yeah - make sure it doesn't spread (measure how far down it the tail it is).

The tail is clearly healing near the rotten part, anyway I'll have to take care to make sure it does not spread. The vet just said that it would fall and the best thing i could do is wait.
I jut gave her more crickets, the floor of the terrarium is full of them, and I'm giving her some Little tenebrio. |
