scales sticking up

maestrOwen Jan 29, 2005 08:34 PM

Daphne's got several spots on her body where her scales stick up. The spots are all on her neck or upper body. They stick up in verticle rows that are each a single scale wide...any ideas what it is?

Owen, its probably just where she has curled up for awhile and the scales havent gone back to normal yet. Nothing to worry about.
