    Dented eye cap...

    I was holding my normal female and noticed she had a dented eye cap. Is that okay? I assume it straightens out with the next shed.

    Sometimes it is caused from low humidity or dehydration.

    My normal female had a wrinkly eye cap when I got her and then I changed her humidity level and it resolved itself.

    You can give her a bit of a soak to see if that helps her.

    At worse, it will fix itself during the next shed.
