I had my little Monty out last night, and he was slowly cruising over the palm of my hand when suddenly I felt a rough patch. Concerned, I turned him over to see what had caused the trange texture, but I could not find anything visible wrong. After handling him for about five more minutes I felt the "roughness" again twice. The best way I can describe what it felt like, is if a peice of skin or a scale were bent or hanging a bit, and I could feel it moving across my hand. I'm wondering what this could be, and wondering if it will come off with the next shed. Monty was a bit of a kamakazi when I had branches in his tank to climb on (turns out he loves to climb, but is not very good at it) so I wonder if he might have damaged his belly during a fall? I have since placed the branches so they are all close to the bedding, and he still climbs but has a very short fall distance now.
If anyone knows what this might be, and if it is likely to shed off with the next shed, please let me know! I certainly don't want it to get worse.
