Wow thanks so much for that!


I am not sure of exact humidity of the tank, but I spray her down 3 times a day, until the glass is literally dripping wet. She has a stick and 2 tension bars to climb on, and a hide on the warm side. The floor of the warm side stays about 92-95 degrees depending on the time of day (since I have so many animals, my room heats up as the day goes on), and the cool side never drops below 80 unless it's night time. At night, it's about 75 in the room, and her heat pad is kept on.


I will try a live rat pup with her, but what you are saying was my suspicion: that these lesions are caused by a parasite. I will definitely give the vet a call, but thank you SO much for your help. It really means a lot.
