How close is the basking bulb? It should not any closer than 6" -- I am going to have some one look at this for me and advise

This is what she said --- shes better w/ the skin / scales than I am so

Those aren't blisters , it's just shed getting ready to pop off soon

Ok what are you using for a UVB? Is it a coil or do you have a MVB in one of those domes?
I believe it's a UVB, coil bulb. And humidity is at 40%. It was a lil high for a few days, so I flipped the fixture around and it went back down. I even gave her a Luke warm bath.

Ok please get rid of the coil UVB they are inadequate you need to do this ASAP
a 24" fixture for a 40 + gallon tank
Zoo Med https://www.pangeareptile.com/colle...o-med-reptisun-t5-hood?variant=26907425734756 w/ a 22" Reptisun bulb 10.0 this fixture comes w/ a 5.0 it can be used as a back up but placement and distance is different from the 10.0
Arcadia Pro T 5 w / a 12% bulb https://www.pangeareptile.com/collections/t5-lighting/products/arcadia-prot5-12-uvb-bulb-with-hood
or this one it comes w/ a bulb Sunblaster
when you get it replaced please post back on here I will help you get it placed in the tank they have certain distance and placement depending on your screen -- your humidity is fine you want it no lower than 20% and no higher than 70% -- please get a digital hygrometer place on the back center wall of the tank so it reads the whole tank
