you do need to watch for a sign of infection or necrosis

yup thats exactly what i have in there now and will keep till shes had 1-2 sheds that are showing her tail is growing normally again.
got her in her new cage so hoping to not have those issues again*cross fingers* im soaking her 2 twice a day with "Nolvasan solution" that the vet gave me
Boaphile 321D with over head heat panel and flex watt with thermo regulator keeping both in check.
one thing i wanted to run by you guys was the vet told me to consider getting a UV light for her and putting it on a 2-3hr timer in her cage or bringing her out and putting her under it to help with shedding and overall health. does anyone do this? I know that unlike reptiles they dont NEED it but makes sense it would be healthy to have some UV exposure like they would naturally. she swims around in a bigger tub i have outside the cage thought i could hang it over that for a few hours at a time while shes out.
