She shed last night and I didn't see the discolored scales before that. I know it's difficult to lend advice without seeing a picture but would you happen to have an idea of what it could be?

    Hopefully I've embedded these links correctly. If not, it's back to the drawing board. I'll go take a few photos of the discolored scales I described earlier and hope to have them up very soon.

    as for the scales: i really can't say without a photo. it could be some stuck shed from the previous shed, but a picture would help me help you better.

    Here are a few photos of the discolored scales I mentioned earlier (Forgive me everyone if I'm posting in the wrong forum but this is all new to me). She completed a shed yesterday with no real issue and I noticed these scales today. Unlike my other two balls, she likes to burrow in her substrate (cypress mulch) quite a bit and I'm wondering if these marks are due to that. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Nice! Perhaps I can see your collection someday when you're nice and settled in, neighbor. :sweeet:

    looks like some scales got pulled during the shed. ive seen something similar after a shed but with only one scale.

    the humidity might have dropped before the shed. keep an eye on it in case it worsens.

    Welcome to the forum. Some of us use "TAPTALK" to post pics and use the forum. I didnt know what that was until this site hahaha but I found it in the app store on my phone. That way you can post pics right from your camera roll like FB/Instram etc..

    Thank you for your time and help, CALM. I was able to post some links to my pictures via imgur.com but I'll be sure to give TAPTALK a try as well. Take care.

    Ha! For the time being, yeah. Backyard is a blank slate at the new place.
