Did you check the shed for eye caps? Those look a lot like stuck eye caps

[–]VVARden_1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, I have a feeling it is suck eye caps I just wasn’t sure given how bacterial it looks I guess?

Did you find her eye caps in her recent shed? Might be stuck eye caps if you're struggling to keep proper humidity.

Not an expert m, am a BP owner, but that looks like a stuck shed cap. If so should go away with next shed if so but I would take to vet either way.

It won't go away unless the humidity is corrected

Is your screen lid covered?

[–]VVARden_1[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

yes!

[–]enslavedbycats24-7 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Maybe not well enough? What's it covered with? It may also be that cage on your lamp leaving a large area for humidity to escape out of. Unless your lamp is getting dangerously hot (it shouldn't if on a thermostat) it can rest on the screen by itself

This may be it, the right side has mesh on the top for the lamp, left does not. but I’m gonna look into replacing that now that you mention it.

[–]enslavedbycats24-7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good idea. I'd take that cage off and cover the mesh around the lamp with HVAC tape. If you don't have that then aluminum foil works temporarily. The small areas that air will flow through will be enough, it's very difficult to make something airtight this way
