accidently pinch his head off, I think he'll grow another one,
lol! Don't worry, he's tough, and he'll pay you back later,
every shirt that I have, has a large hole on the left side of
the waist from where Teddy plants his back right foot/claws.
I don't even try to explain it to people. Get him used to
having his head and front legs handled, sometimes Teddy gets
something foreign right near his eye and he's good about holding
still so I can get it.
I don't know how else you can clean his face but with warm
water and a washcloth. I clean Teddy's after he eats Mazuri.
Don't use a toothbrush or anything on his face but a cloth.
Even if you don't clean it at all the first few times just
get him used to having his mouth wiped, and eventually he'll
clean up. What is that boy eating? Dark collards?!
