Hi! I have had a ton of questions lately Simeon is from Petsmart (sadly) he has a defect in his shell, it's very minor but it's there. His shell also flakes on occasion when it gets very dry. I have very low humidity but I'm going to dampen my Coco coir this weekend when I add another layer. I was wondering if I can moisturize his shell with a very thin layer of coconut oil. I have done this before, I gave him a bath at night and moisturized his shell, then in the morning I gave him another bath to clean the coconut oil off. I don't know if I should do it again or not. I would like to do it tonight. Also, can I file his nails. I have put multiple large slates for him to naturally file his nails throughout his cage, they don't seem to be working. Can I use a nail file and file down his nails- they are over 1/2 an inch long
