Unhappy Hatchling crypto ?????

My little guy here was attacked by my cat about a month or two ago.....(child left the lid off ) Anyway, he's lost his tail, and he has some wounds on all of his legs. I didn't think he'd last the night. Well he wasn't shedding completely so I put him in some warm water and when I looked at his belly, it looked like there was a blackish/purple dot there. Could this be crypto or internal bleeding? anyone who has any input, it would be much appreciated.

If it's a baby Ixidor it's your most likely seeing the insides like the kidneys or liver.

Crypto is in the most part horrible to deal with if your not dealing with a "carrier".

The most common misconception is the black/purplish spot on the belly. They don't get this spot until the VERY end. When they are very close to death and have lost most of their body and tail weight.

If you have any other question concerning crypto just pm me again.

I would be more concerned with internal damage from the "escape" and cat. If it were mine i would schedule an appointment with a vet.
