I'm no expert, but I think some sores and scars take a few sheds to go away. Derek

to get rid of any "damage" to the skin. Just keep an eye on it.

You didn't bother anybody. I have different questions about all kinds of stuff all the time. Most of the time, I get them answered here, and I don't mind helping when I can. Don't think that you are bothering anybody by coming on the forum. You didn't bother me. That is what it is here for. There is lots of interesting and knowledgable information here. There are herpers on here that have seen just about everything there is to see in herping. I get help on the forums all the time. Derek

well i asked a few ?? about my purple surinam i did a rescue on and someone got a little snippy so i wasnt wanting to be a bother..its just my vet has been closed and i was needing info..thanks though..
