    Blood near coming out of vent help!
    My BP has been curled up in the corner of her tank and in shed for atleast 3 days now. I JUST got up to go to bed and checked up on her. I saw her shed laying next to her, it was a crappy shed, came off in 3 pieces.

    I have cell phone pictures of whats going on, but I have no way to get them on here.

    There is a little blood coming out of her vent, its a small amount, but I'm wondering if it was from a pulled scale? Anything to be worried about?
    :tears:


    On the bright side of things, she looks like a pastel, shes really light colored.

    If its only a small amount and she just shed, this is fine.

    If you find more very soon, in larger quantities, then I would be concerned, but if it is an isolated incident, its normal and fine.

    a little bit of blood around the vent after a shed is completely normal. They shed skin inside part of the vent and its very fragile skin. If the blood is more than a few drops or an amount to be concerned ...well you should be concerned then. lol.
