My panther cham seems to be having trouble shedding his skin. He’s very dull in color and at night when he turns normally bright yellow there’s spots that stay dark. Also his head you can see it’s on the verge of shedding but not getting there. He also has some yellow spots that seem to stay. It’s not always in that spot but will be stuck during the day in some spots once he turns green in the morning from yellow. The one spot on his side is what concerns me most bc it looks almost like a scab and it’s the spot that always stays dark when the rest of him is bright yellow at night. (I will try to get a pic of this tonight.)
Also his eating has changed a bit. He’s been picky as it is to begin with but his favorite bugs were grasshoppers and silkworms. He’s now lost interest it seems in the grasshoppers (now that I have a giant colony of them lmao)
I took some pics but it’s hard to really capture what I’m seeing in person.
Wondering is this just a shedding issue and is there something I could use to help him shed like a skin conditioner maybe?
For reference he gets misted 3x a day from a mistking and has a humidifier running all night each night. For humidity purposes. Nothings changed husbandry wise recently and he actually used to get misted less before I put everything on timers.
