#2273234 Royal python View Profile	Crested gecko scale rot? Help Please!! I’ve had my Gecko for almost 2 years now and I decided to upgrade her substrate to Eco Earth a couple of days ago. I’ve now found this scary thing growing and I found some mold in the earth when I was cleaning it. I’m switching back to paper towels at the moment but what is it and what can I do?!Picture

Check out a good close-up image of their skin. They are modified scales, not like those of a snake, but keratinous nonetheless.
