Dry, flaky head on redfoot tortoise.

Hi everyone. This is my 3 year old redfoot Hawk. For some strange reason her head is very dry, flaky and somewhat cracked. I’m not sure what’s wrong and I’ve tried everything I’ve heard to fix it. I mist her enclosure, give her regular soaks, she has a humidifier constantly running, but her head looks awful. I tried reddit and people told me to give her more calcium, I have and nothing has worked. I don’t know what else to do and I feel horrible. Here’s a photo of her today. Her skin doesn’t look bright and hydrated, it looks cracked and dry and I know for a fact that’s not normal.

Also if anyone has any oils or any methods to fix her skin please let me know. I heard coconut, olive oil and vitamin e oil are good to use.

Curious.
Can we see your heating and lighting?
What is it and how close is it?
