    Re: Scale Rot or something else? Please help!

    Not something Vet worthy IMO, I would keep an eye on it, make sure it does not get bigger, make sure it's not oozing, and my bet is that it will all be gone after one shed given the extent.

    In the mean time keep your BP on paper towel, make sure it clean and dry.

    The thing is with light morph is that the slightest little thing we would no see on a normal or dark morph shows, every little imperfection every little boo boo etc.
    Thank you! Without having seen this before, to me it almost looks like she just scratched herself on something. The scales are still there, they just look damaged. They're clean and don't show signs of oozing or infection as of yet. I feed her frozen/thawed and I was previously keeping her on Aspen shavings, but have since switched over to paper towels. I did have a triceratops/rock thing as part of her decor and something to help her rub against for shedding, but it's possible that she could have damaged herself on that so I've taken that out for the time being. I will keep an eye on it and see what happens. She is otherwise active and eating well with no change in disposition. Thank you for your help!
