An overgrown guinea pig nail is long and normally curled. If the nail isn't clipped, then the curled nail can begin to grow underneath the guinea pig's paw and cause pain. A guinea pig's claws should be clipped once a month.
It grows approximately 3cm every year.
Sometimes a jack russels nail is long and then breaks out if it is loose.no they can be clipped, they can fall off!theres lots of different reasons!
The most active growing portion of the nail is the Lunula. The Lunula is the white lower part of your nail closest to your skin.
The nail itself is non living, the nail bed (where the nail grows from) is living.
My hamster recently actually had his nail ripped out because of its length i think he may have bit it. The vet says it should just heal because they usually dont need antibiotics or meds for it. You should get his nails clipped when their too long to prevent it.
the nail groove provides a surface upon which the nail plate moves as it grows also quiding it straight they also anchor the nail in place
Put a bandaid on first and if swelled put on ice.
Yes
Unless there has been significant damage to the nail root... yes.
