Isopod bite -

[little leaf]

UGH ! that TINY little Isopod bite - its getting worse I think - I was tending the chams and noticed that bite from the isopod looked like it had a puffy scab, so I took a Q Tip and warm water to just kinda wash it off - and the top came off, to show this HOLE ! I have never had any cham every get bitten by not even a cricket - ( except when Max got bitten by that spider ) is this how bites look from bugs ? it is not swollen anyplace around it , but it did bleed just a tiny bit- what the heck ???? I took him out of the viv/ after this happened because I did not want to leave him in just encase they went after him again - so I know this is all from that first bite - do isopods have some form of venom like spiders ??? I thought they only ate veg/ and leaf littler - am I missing something about these guys ?
sorry the pic is not that good, but he really did not want me in his face w/ the camera

Oh no! Poor little guy! I've never seen anything like that, hope he's ok! Maybe try polysporin

I never knew isopods were vicious. I have them in with my Pygmy babies.is there any way at all for you too explain this? Maybe I need to change my care routine.

Poor little Sammy! He is just always getting attacked! Probably some neosporin is all that is needed
