Hello!

Our boy, Pablo got into a scrap and has a scab on his foot. We’re pretty on the ball will cleaning it and the cage so we’re confident the risk of infection is low.

However, after a few days of scabbing, he always chews it off and it bleeds and begins the cycle again.

It’s in his foot so I can imagine it gets itchy or he knocks it when grooming. Is there anything we can do that’ll stop him from chewing it and allowing it to heal properly?
