    Scabs, generally pop up after a rough shed but should disappear by the next cycle. No biggy.

    Re: weird marks

    Is she rubbing on anything? A gap in between the tub and shelf? Anywhere she can force her head into?

    I use a thin layer of Eco earth. She did just shed a few weeks ago. Also she ate a REALLY big rat that was probably too big. Generally she's pretty chill though. Not much rubbing. Just comes out of her hide for food and the occasional soak..

    Re: weird marks

    I'd still be looking for a rub spot. A hide she could get stuck in? Pics of your set up?? Imho, that's not going to happen from a shed or rat....

    Either rubbing or really really minor scale rot. Nothing to be concerned about. It will go away with the next shed.
