Problem:Lately, like in the past couple of days, I've noticed a white crust of some sort on the tip of his nose near his mouth and on the sides of his mouth. When I tried to clean it off, it didn't budge. His nostrils are clear, save for the salts that he sneezes sometimes. I can't get a decent picture because he flips out and attacks anything that comes near him. Is there any idea of what this could be?
 
I don't think it's the same kind of crust. It's not on his nostrils. It's around his mouth. I think it might be that he's about to shed or something, but I'll cut back on dusting the crickets he eats to once a day.
