I had a scary experience with a light before - my 100 watt heat light exploded and then the dome started to flame. This happened in my leopard gecko tank! The hide below it, which was about 18" or more below the light was burnt :(

I'm so sorry this happened to your baby. It also is not easy for you, either. I hope for the fastest recovery possible! And please don't blame yourself.

I saw it mentioned above and I'm curious too, but I was also under the impression that iodine will inhibit new skin growth. Would something like Chlorhexidine (Novalsan) be acceptable to replace iodine with?

Good question about the iodine!!she wants me to continue using it. Maybe I should call and ask about that. She did say they dilute it they made up a bunch on gauge for me to use. She wouldn't tell me the formula though.
Thanks for your comments.

I went down this morning to bathe Sparky to a mess in the enclosure. She'd knocked everything over and her orginial scute had been knocked off. Granted it was lifting but I didn't think it was ready to come off yet!! Orginial scute that was injured I should say.
It looks pretty good underneath!!
