    Sloppy eater? Actually almost looks like dirt. What king of substrate are you using?

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

    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..

    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.
