Thanks for the update. Eating is a good sign.
How much tongue flicking is this little scrub doing?

[Light of Dae]

Some tongue flicking... not as much as I'd like to see... but having a buddy in there helps. I think she sleeps most of the time n thats why she isn't flicking her tongue much...

Thinking if I should just put her back with the girls... right now for heat she just has a 40w light... the girls (boys do now too) now have heat mats....Thinking belly heat may be rather helpful...?

Glad to see the little guy is doing well.

My one eyed marcianus has the same defect on her ventral scales. Good to see that the little one is doing better.

Glad she ate and shed! My concern wouldn't be so much the weird lines around the belly button...but rather that swelling. That looks abnormal to me. I hope she continues to improve and I would keep a close eye on her pooping and that she doesn't develop swelling around the vent.

My first thought while reading this thread was a malformation. I hope she does well for you and I glad to hear she is eating and had a good shed. Definitely keep us posted on her.

It might be a birth defect or something... One of my male eastern Flame/ery has a line like it to but not nearly as severe.... He is very active n alert though.
Here are a few pictures of the male. Very hard to get pictures of him as he is VERY VERY active.

He is a pretty boy, green looking, but getting red. Cannot wait to see his adult color.

Strange looking. If he's eating, drinking an pooping I wouldn't worry too much about it.
It will be interesting to see that belly as he matures.
