    Too close to eat food

    When I feed my veiled he tries to get really close to his food and eat it but he can't get the food when he is so close.

    Black on lips and nose?

    I went out of town for a week while my friend took care of my veiled. When I picked him up to bring him home, I noticed his lip and nose were black. I am concerned it might be a burn. Sorry for the bad photo quality. It was taken on an iPadiPad

    Warm mist humidifier?
