I recently got this female Leo(age unknown) from a rescue center and there is white stuff on its body And on her tail which kinda looks cut and weird compared to my other female leopard. I’ve only had her for about a week so I’m unsure if it’s just shes but I just want to rule out any kind of disease because I would not like to infect my other lizards! Thank you for any help or suggestions

Is it possible she was with another gecko and got scratched? That's what it looks like to me. It's best to quarantine a new gecko for at least a month anyway, so that should give it enough time to heal or change. If it gets worse, you could take her to a reptile vet.

I just got her from a rescue so I’m not sure. I do have her in her own tank and plan to keep the two Leo’s I have separate I might just wait for her to shed to see if it goes away
