Hey guys I've noticed that my Uros lip line seems to be receding slightly. I think it may be caused by him rubbing his face against the glass. Is there a way to stop this so that he won’t end up with a flat face?

I have heard the "glass dancing" is common in uros, as well as other lizards. Nose rubbing definitely occurs with more nervous wild caught snakes like racers when caged. One suggestion I heard is to keep them in an enclosure with three solid sides, or cover three sides of your aquarium with newspaper or other dark paper.

Thank you for your help! I'll definatly do that, I've scheduled a vet visit as well just to be sure its not something else.
