6-week old grandis tail injury

[AppleNick]

Hi Unlimited,

About 20 minutes ago I accidentally closed the screen top of one of my cages on a 6 week old grandis' tail. He skipped away from the lid area instantly and a moment later I saw that his tail was crooked and twitching at first, but now it is just crooked and mostly limp. I don't see a wound or anything at the moment.

What should I do? Can I do anything for him? Has anyone dealt with this?

EDIT: Here is a photo that shows what the tail looks like at the moment. His color is good and he is not extraordinarily stressed.

Can't see anything wrong from the picture to be honoust.
Keep a close eye on it ofcourse, but i geuss if it bothers him it will drop it and regenerate another one.

Yes, it's hard to see from a picture. The disturbing thing is the way it wriggles around about the point of injury sometimes.

I know nothing about this species in particular but that wiggling sounds like the tail is broken and doing what it would do if it was torn off by a predator, twitching to keep interest on it rather than the animal. I can't see anything in the picture but I am thinking its damaged internally. I have unfortunately seen this in person when as a kid i tried to catch a lizard by the tail. ( I was 6 noone told me better)

Please let us know how it goes. usually injuries like this the skin is broken too so I am interested to see how this goes and hoping for the best for the little one.
