My first question on this forum is about toe nails. When I first read about them I thought I remember reading about a vein that runs underneath the toe nail, but is that inside his toe or actually in the skin that lines the underneath of his actual nail that I see?
When I have ever cut them, I have only cut the tips. I ask because they have since grown a bit (I used to keep up with them, really!) and it appears that that skin underneath continues to gro with it and he still just has little tips.
So I either need to cut them weekly (or even a couple times a week) or they will continue to get out of hand. I have had him loose an entire nail before and it has grown back, but I am afraid to cut into that skin.
Should I just take him to a herp vet and let them do it?
