Hi Guys.
Just got home from work and have noticed one of my pink tongues has marks on her scales along her back.
I've suspected she has been gravid for a while and was wondering if this could be signs of fighting with her cagemate?
They are siblings, both purchased and kept together since I got them earlier in the year and I've never seen any aggression from either one. (Not that it isn't possible or likely)
There is nothing in the enclosure that I know of that she could have scraped herself on and no marks on the male.
Temps are between 33 and 38 at the basking spot and I have it on for 3 hours in the morning and 4 in the afternoon.
I've included pictures and will probably seperate her from the male just in case, but would appreciate your opinions.
Smaller male, no marks.
Female. Note the size difference.
Last two pictures are of the marks on her back.
