Hey there, you may recognize my boy Leo from my previous post. He's finally past some stool *sigh of relief*, no impaction! Anyways, ever since I purchased him he's had these odd dark spots on his face and I know for certain that is not his normal coloration or from his natural color changing. I thought possibly stuck shed but that's out of the picture; it looks like some of his scales are damaged. Could this be scale rot? I'm not entirely sure and need a second opinion, he doesn't have any visible sores or pain and he is acting normal with a fine appetite. Any answer is appreciated, thanks.

Those are patches of shed -- they will probably come off next shed

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
