    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

One of my females has white, powdery "stuff" pretty much all over her back and tail. It is not on her belly at all. I am positive that this wasn't there the day before yesterday. I've tried to gently use a toothbrush to see if it would come off, but I can't see that it did anything. She just shed about 5 days ago and I think the humid hide may have been too wet. I usually change the peat moss out after that, but I had a crappy week with work, and just got to cleaning everything today. Anyway, there was nothing unusual in the hide (no mold, fungus, smell). So, does this look like a fungus, bacteria, or what?
Thanks

looks like she has been getting into some fights, is she housed in a group?

definatly looks like little bite marks to me...
 
She has been in with another female. The larger spot on her tail is definitely a bite, but it never occurred to me the little places might be bites too. :dunce: She is a bit temperamental.......she tends to pick the fights, not be the one getting picked on. She scares the crap out of my male, and he's twice her size! Anyway, she is now by herself.
 
yeah, i had a few nasty females that started fighting alot, they each started getting more and more of those little white dots, and soon as i noticed it getting worse they were seperted, with yours, it should also go away with a shed or two, i'd keep her alone for now, until you got a more docile female at least
