Overfeeding, Or something else?

1.) Your temps are too low. Anything below 75 is too low for the cool side, and the warm side should be at least around 88-90.

I know the temps aren't high enough, And I've been trying to get them higher. My next purchase is a lower watt bulb for the cooler side to help get that higher, and probably a bigger heating pad.

As for the scale rot, I've looked at a lot of pictures and information about it, and I know that his humidity is high for the temps he has. But there aren't any other signs other than just those scales, No pink belly, or patches of reddish brown on the underside. As for the smell, there isn't one other than just the substrate; everything smells fine including him. The substrate is dry, and the only dampness I apply is spraying his tank down twice, just fine misting. And the substrate dries out pretty quick after doing so, due to the screen lid and ventilation in my room.

I do however plan on taking him to the vet once I find a reputable one in my area, and because he's never been to one. But the visit may have to wait for a tad longer until funds are in my pocket.
I do plan on feeding him less often, writing the post made my mind up on that
