Egluntyne Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 The pigments are being leached from her body. You may also notice that her legs are paler than they were. When she goes off lay ie through a moult, the colour should come back. it is nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasperaliceuk Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Had to Google this for our Gingernut couple of weeks ago - it looked like she was leaking a white powdery stuff. She's fine though and it is not so obvious now. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
