Does this look normal to youM she won't let me touch her for the past few days and she's super crabby. Her beard won't go black but she won't let me hold her and she won't stay still. In her tank she sits in one spot and won't move.

The wrinkly loose skin is normal to allow them to puff out and pancake. The change in behavior might be due to an oncoming shed. I don't see any clear signs of it in the photo but her head looks like it might be starting to gray a bit indicating oncoming shed there.

She totally shed that night. I didn’t know that they shed in sessions. She shed her feet and tail a week ago and just last night her stomach broke open and she had a full body shed. Still waiting on her head though. Thanks so much

Hello,

She is very pretty, a leatherback, right?
So she did shed her head then? It looks like her back is going to shed, also. As suggested,
they do have some loose skin to allow for stretching & puffing out. LOL

She's a lovely and very cute little hatchling who's a leatherback (suppressed spikes and smoother skin and she looks just fine to me.
