    Scale Question

    Marley just shed the other day and afterwards when I was handling him I noticed that there were a few scales that seemed to me "raised". I will get pictures of it as soon as I can but I think I am just being paranoid. It just seems a few scales might be a little dried out after the shed. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar and if I should expect this to heal itself after the next shed or is there anything I should do to aid him along. The humidity is between 65-75% with temps 88-91 hot side 77-80 cold side.
    The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.
    Drugs are a bet with your mind.

    I think I know what you're talking about. Sometimes it's just an area where some of the new skin came off with the old skin after the shed. It should clear up with the next shed. I haven't seen any sort of issue with these dried scales. I think I put a little neosporin on it in the past but I don't do that anymore. I'm not sure that made any sort of difference in the long run.
