    The 'off' scales happens sometimes when they bump their head on something during a shed cycle. The underlying scales can be slightly damaged and appear odd after the old skin is shed. This can also happen if humidity was too low during a shed, and the skin on top of the head stuck, but they pulled it off anyhow.
    Oh Really? Thats good. I stopped misting a few days ago after doing more reading on the forums and now I am glad I did.

    I noticed some of it was just substrate, but I think when I change her substrate this weekend I am gonna sand down the entrances to her hides better. I did it one but they aren't suuuper smooth yet.

Your humidity isn't that high so any small change can make a huge difference for you.
    I've been using it about three weeks. I am gonna change the substrate to newspaper soon I think.


    I am also Hoping like Kaorte says it will dry out overnight now that I uncovered the vents.


    Thanks for all your help everyone!
