Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hi all! First time poster, long time reader.
I have a 1 yr old veiled who is in good health. A few days ago she started shedding only on her head. I assumed the rest of her body would eventually begin shedding but it has not. She typically has an easy time shedding and it has always been the whole body at basically the same time. Is this something that happens sometimes or a sign of a problem?
BTW...I really appreciate all the helpful advise given in this forum. I've learned more here than most of the research i did before purchasing my girl

Thanks!
Micah

I've noticed that adult chams don't always shed entirely "on schedule" especially areas that are less flexible and bendable like the head, casque, or around the dorsal spines. As long as the shed itself looks normal and no stuck pieces develop discolored margins I wouldn't worry too much. Lots of spraying and maybe rubbing stubborn pieces with a wet cloth or Q tip if needed.

So I can ask a dumb question...right? I'm wondering how I can add a list of my critters to the bottom of my messages. Can it be a permanent thing?
Thanks!

I think you do this by adding a "signature" to your KS forum user profile.

...is the one you never ask

Carlton is correct. You would do this by clicking on the User Prefs at top of posts. You can set preferences and add your list to the signature portion.

Welcome to the forum!
