Hi all!
Star has recently shed (about 3 days ago) and I have just noticed a scale on her head that is really rough and bumpy, and is like sandpaper to touch. Is this an unshed scale? There was a small strip of skin that I had to get off myself, with warm water and a towel, but that didn't work with the head scale. Should I be worried, or should I just leave it and hope it sorts itself out?
Thanks for any answers
