i haven't dealt with them so it's good to ping everyone lol

#

just wanted to correct the term LOL

#

Okay okay phew

#

Ty for that

#

Femoral pores? Does that mean it’s a girl? Thoight he was a boy for so long

vestal cipher
#

No

#

They both have it

#

Female isn't as visible iirc

#

femoral has nothing to do with sex it's a term Dance males have them. Females can have slight but it's not always a thing

peak lintel
#

Oh right

#

Any idea on what I should do ? Ik he’s been more active digging etc but that’s relitively normal for him

#

Peachy and I haven't dealt with it so you'll have to wait for someone else to chip in :)

NQA, I haven’t personally dealt w it, however I’ve seen others clean backed up femoral pores by loosening them in a bath (warm water filled up to their belly) and rubbing them off with a damp qtip

#

Additionally, I’ve seen others suggest to have a variety of rougher textures in the tank (rocks, wood) so that they can naturally rub it off in the future

#

They do indeed seem to be a little gunky but not terribly

He does have all sorts in his tank, dragon stone, normal rocks, slate, cork, wood, etc so dunno why it’s happened. Heard it can also just happen n they sort it out themselves but I’ll try give him a bath when I get in

#

Had him in a bath for 5 min before he got stressed chirping so he’s back in now

#

It did look like it was coming out the holes more than before tho

#

Couldn’t rly see

peak lintel
#

Managed to get a slight bit out but he gets stressed easily n won’t stop moving

#

You’re better off causing a lot of stress once vs stress a little bit each day, just grab him and get it over w tbh

I'm really not sure. I haven't dealt with it. It does look better but idk if it's "finished" yknow? NQA

nqa theyre still clogged. you see the gunk clogging the hole itself? thats what you need to take out (or better yet get a vet to do it if you dont know how to properly remove them)

peak lintel
#

Been rubbing the area with a wet cotton bud and that’s all I can get

tidal mesa
#

these are unclogged femoral pores

nqa im sure a little bit isnt a big deal as long as it doesnt get inflamed

peak lintel
#

Oh yeah

#

He deffo had enouhh today tho I couldn’t get him to stay still. Plan is tomorrow to soak him for 20 mins and then try again and get what I can out. Looked at some pics of ‘normal’ ones in inter web and they loook a lot like mine but I want to be on the safe side

#

Just seen him licking around the vent area - good or bad?
