thanks for the post...

thats what i thought (newspaper ink)...i just noticed it this morning, so i didn't worry too much about it...

those scales have been that way since i got her...i don't think it's from being in a cramped space...shes only maybe 3ft, and she's in a 4' x 2' x 2' vision cage with plenty of space...

dehydration could be possible, although she has a full, clean water bowl at all times... i always put their bowls/ hides/ etc in the same place so they know where to find them...

i was just worried that the scale creases were a result of something i could prevent/fix...as long as she is healthy & happy, i am content...im not all that concerned about the aesthetics, they are hardly noticeable.

thanks!
jessica
