Hi.
My axie fully jumped from his temporary tank last night (he’s never had a jumping thing before, I know it was careless but that’s why I didn’t have a lid on it). He was on the floor for an unknown amount of time, could’ve been 5 minutes or 2 hours. He sustained some injuries, and no vet can see him until tomorrow at the earliest. Even then, it’s very expensive and I’m unsure what they can do to help.
Current Symptoms:
Red mark (possible cut) on tail
Curled tail
Bruising on the stomach
Swollen front right leg (possibly broken)
Generally off color (assuming this is due to his slime coat being dried out)
I’ll attach some pictures as well, I really am worried about him. His gills have returned to their normal color, and when I have had to pick him up he has been fighting me. He hasn’t been moving a ton, and he is mainly balancing on his back legs with his front legs in the air. He has not taken any food, I will be getting tea today in order to give him tea baths and changing his water fully for the next few days. Current water temp is 66.2 degrees. Any advice is appreciated, I just want him to pull through and feel better.
