I have a baby sulcata and i seem to have gone wrong somewhere. I have the humidity at around 70, it goes up a little after i mist,(two times a day) and the cage temperature is around 80 degrees with a 95 degree basking spot. I have a uvb light going across the cage long wise, and one uvb basking spot. I feed him everyother day dusting it with either calcuim or tortoise dust everytime. he looked good for about 2 months, then he started getting this crusty stuff on his head and over his eyes. almost like he cant shed or something, and now his shell is getting softer and softer. any advise would help, if you need any more information please just ask!!!
