There are two types: dry and wet. Dry, there are many grayish-white or silver-colored dry scales in the coat, and the coat is sparse; wet, dander is oily and sticks to the coat, and there is a lot of oil at the tail root or a lot of yellow-brown oil adheres to it, giving off a special rotten smell.
