Abstract
Skin disease is one of the commonest presentations in reptiles. Many of the problems encountered relate to poor husbandry and nutrition and require education of the owners in addition to treating the condition. This chapter considers anatomy and physiology, ecdysis and dysecdysis, clinical evaluation and a range of specific diseases.
