So, he did roll around whenever i did that so I had to stop The good news is that he is healed now! Not fully healed because broken bones take months to fully heal and stuff, but the callous is hardened, he is using the leg and hand as usual, altho he is still holding it up a little bit, but he...

Id rather not hold him. He is squirmy and doesnt tolerate being held very well. I am also not experienced enought to grab him by the base of the tail, I heard thats a way to hold them but... It doesnt look very confortable to me either. I could try doing that while I distract him with some...

Update: He chewd the bandage/cast off last saturday at night, went to the vets to have it completely removed. Gave him some cream for the skin since it was super red and bad. Today he had to go again for a revision anyways with the exotic vets. No xrays in fear that too much manipulation could...

He has ben sleeping a whole lot lately. I think thats fairly normal, he eats and is a lil more active at nighttime, when I offer some treats scattered around the cage (so he has like 5 seconds of entertainment) and an applestick. I do worry he will get bored or frustated by the lack of activity...

@Amethyst Oh! That sounds super nice! I do have some fleece lying around Ill see if he likes the idea of if he doesnt! Thank you very much!!

@tunes I dont really mind him having to get it amputated, really. It'd suck but both of us will adapt nicely. He probably said a "week or two" so we dont get super overwhelmed? Ive seen a lot of vets (and doctors for that matter) say that itd heal soon and then need longer Like when my dentist...

So, due to an accident, I stepped on my Chin last night, resulting in a broken right radius and ulna. Im so so glad it wasnt worse but still, we are not happy about it. He is currently with a cast? I think. (Im sorry I'm Spanish) and has the entire leg restricted right now. No hide, no shelves...

@Amethyst Oh no I dont have fleece at the bottom of the cage, its barebottom. I put bedding in his litterbox, but cleaning the spot where he pees with vinegar, i dont want fleece there yet as not to wash it constantly. And for the night thing, yeah mayb he is a little too excited, nevertheless...

Its ben a month since I'm trying to swap from bedding to fleece, not fleece liners, just covering the bottom of the cage with fleece, but have a litter box. Untill he is properly litter trained he is barebottom in case he has "accidents" and if he starts peeing on fleece, he might just start...

@Amethyst Oh wow, Thank you so much for all this info. Knowing he his feet are not bad is a relief, really <3 I'll try find some rocks and other perches for him! All he has are flat surfaces in his cage with the occasional cardboard rolls (He doesn't eat them) I bet I can find something cheap...

Photos here Sorry for the quality, I cannot get anything better. (I usually cant get a good look at his feet. They look like tiny alien feet <3) (PS. I cannot hold him by the base of the tail, he gets too squirmy and makes very very angry sounds. Tail is a No touchy zone) (He is currently angry...
