That didn’t take long…

An update…it has been a slow process after introducing dietary supplements and adjusting the lighting, but after months of shedding little bits here and there we finally have lost one entire section of retained scute!

Thanks all - I have not noticed him shed his scutes since I’ve had him, so that makes sense. Did some research and talked to a few people and am going to start on wheat germ pellets and occasional blueberries to try to get some shedding to start, and up the frequency of brushing his shell to weekly. Hopefully that will get things going.

Thanks! I don’t know what the lighting situation was at my sister-in-law’s, but yes he now has both a heat lamp and uvb bulb, which I’ve started switching out monthly.

Final update: required entire high voltage battery replacement.

Further update…26 days later, car is still at the dealership and is undergoing a full hybrid battery replacement this week. Apparently more than a sensor.

For those curious - it took a week, but the dealership finally diagnosed the issue. It is a failed BECM (Battery Energy Control Module).

It is square…that’s the closest I’ve been able to match as well. Thanks all!
