Postby Drew » Wed Jul 18, 2007 2:49 am

i notics that Boris' tail looks more dry than the other parts of his body, he jusr shed and his body looks shiny and nice but his tail looks pale. it couldnt be an old skin that didnt come of because i helped him took the skin off his tail..
what could be wrong? could it be diet? low humidity?

he seems ok. eating ok...

Is it actually dry? Or just *looks* pale. Most BTS lose color in the tail region.

Did his tail actually shed yet? Sometimes the end doesn't shed right away and it looks darkier and dryer.
