My BP keeps climbing the heat source (RHP) in the viv and wrapping around it then eventually falling off.
This isn’t the first time it’s happened either. The first being last month, at the time I had been using a CHE with a circular metal guard he wrapped himself around it rather easy, he fell off this one time & damaged the scales on his belly, things went back to normal after he had shed which was about a week later.
(He shed whilst not being in my care, took him to shop where we got him so they could mind him as we had a family funeral to sort).
Anyway, now he’s done it again and to me it seems worse, like before it lifted his belly scales up except this time it’s down his side & a bit on the belly, not that far down from his head. And I don’t know what to do as it’s the weekend, the vets aren’t open during these days. & it’s the only vets in my city that deals with reptiles.
This is what the result of the fall is:
It worse from my point of view I couldn’t get a good angle. To me it looks like someone’s went to scale a fish then changed their mind.
Just hoping he doesn’t get scale rot as I can see a bit of pink round where it’s happened. And I’m starting to question if he’s mentally disabled, like off the charts ‘special’. After I put him back in the viv he wanted to do it all over again so I’ve turned the RHP off for a bit in case he burns himself.
*sorry for the length of this. I’m not happy at all about this, really annoyed.
