Hey everone

My friend has a bluey that has the top of his scales from his neak to his back legs not smooth anymore it has the scales actually pointing up a little bit but not actually straight up in the air.

He wants to know if it is a desiease or he is just shedding or somthing and soz i dont hav any pics at the moment.

Thanks
 
Hard to say with out pics. If at all worried take it to a vet asap
 
as Jason said, mites and ticks can raise the scales. Pics would help, or a vet would be able to tell you for sure.
 
Could be humidity related,they're possibly too dry.
 
thanks very much i will try get some pics this afternoon and if it did have mites is there a way of getting rid of them
Thanks everyone
 
My friend just called me to say that he shed his skin this morning
thanks very much for all the replies
