scales coming off the nose

[Peter Williams]

I think theres been other threads about this but I've been noticing that over the past couple weeks my bps nose is getting more and more scratched up. Sorry I have no pic, its hard to get one because she so head shy, and I have a crappy camera. Its more the top of her head really, not her nose. I think I've seen some pictures before of other bps of these scales coming off in a shed but it wasnt like that after her last shed. Its not gooey or bleeding or anything, just kinda dry it seems. The humidity is great in her tub and shes never had a problem shedding. The really is nothing for her to be scratching against, or any reason for her to be doing it. I guess my question is, is this permanent? Can these scales grow back or is it gonna be like this for the rest of her life?

They growback, but some scaring is possible. Are you sure she is a female? Alot of my males do this because they want to get out and breed. Some of my females do it also when they are gravid .

Ya its a female. I've just been reading all the other threads on this and I'm alot less worried than i was before. I guess I shoulda done that before I posted, my bad.
