Is this normal, I have had my GTP for about 2 years and he has like wrinkles or dry sink in some spots. The cage he has been in is bophiles the temp is around 89 and the humidilty is fine. I feed him once every 7-10 days. can you eamil me and let me know. I can send you a picture or 2 maby I am over worrying but I figured I would ask the experts. my email address is garylight@sbcglobal.net

thanks

89 degrees is too hot in my opinion. What is your source of heat? (panel,uth etc.) Are you keeping adequate humidity? What type of temperature controller are you using? Is your animal shedding completely? These wrinkles could also just be natural skin folds.

End panel heating with a Rancho Teemp controller. This last shed wasnt his best still has a little shed on his head but the humidity is fine.
