Thanks. I think it looks like stuck shed in the picture too. That is why I've been doing baths and was thinking vitamin E. The tail is fused and he eats a large fuzzy once a week.

My friend bought him because he was healthy. (He's a biologist and worked as one of the curators for the reptile house at the Bronx Zoo. He breeds a variety of reptiles now.

Actually, he is that dark. His Mom was a normal and his father was a calico, pastel, fire, pinstripe.

Thanks for the advice! I will try and get a closer look at it when he let's me. He's a bit fussy. He seems to love the baths... just coils up and looks around.
