Re: a new TX hatchling

>>2. There are a few 'split (middle) scales' placed a couple of inches north of his vent. Is this normal or a small cosmetic flaw? I've read that it is normal from an unverifiable one source and I don't think it makes a world of difference but I was just curious and wanted to be sure.

scale flaws mentioned below are usually right around the vent, just north and/or south. split scales "a couple inches north" of the vent are probably the scales where the umbilicus emerged. these eventually grow together. most likely no need for concern.
