doesn't RC Paull use whatever feminine creams that
happen to be around the house to cream his 100 year
old Galapagos's neck skin which always gets dry too?
I thought that's what he said in his book! LOL

I wouldn't use perfumy ones, how about a tad of
aloe or vaseline?? I haven't tried it, would it
be a problem??

To the poster, my sulcata has dry looking skin on
his head neck sometimes, and other people have
posted about this here too, even wondering if
their tortoises are shedding!

I dip my finger in warm water and my sulcata adores
me rubbing his head and neck with warm water. OK,
so he adores me rubbing his head and neck period, but
the warm water seems to help his dry skin a bit.
