Hi, its been a while since i have been on here but have noticed some marks on morgana. where she has her darker orange spots it looks like the scales are seperating or missing, just would like to find out if this is normal or something is wrong. She is fine otherwise and not showing any strange problems.

I have attached a pic, sorry its not the best. but can make out what i mean.

I will try and upload a better one.





Thanks in advance.

I think this may be how sunglows start to look as they get older. Dont quote me on it, but I'm only saying as theres an adult sunglow in my local reptile shop who is perfectly healthy and has the same markings :)

Does it look like this? This is one of my Lava corns. She is now developing an almost lilac coloured border to her sadles. It almost looks like missing scales but isn't, it's just her colour :)

It looks just like that actually. Thank you, this has put my mind at ease.

I will upload some better pics soon just to be sure.
