Thank you for the proper terminology. I didn't think it was calcium, but I didn't have the proper terms to describe it. I'm lucky to have four or five different herp vets in my area, and I've used four of them regularly, depending on what needs to be done, how urgent it is, what my schedule looks like, and how experienced the vet is. Dr. Boyd in Baltimore has extensive experience, and he's been a vet for a licensed reptiles rehabber over the years, as well as working with the state on wildlife confiscation cases, so I trust him very much. I don't know if I'd trust the procedure with a less experienced vet. Dr. Gold in Abingdon, MD, is another one that I would trust to do the procedure.
