    Exclamation Brown spots throughout body? Maybe scalerot? D:

    Ive been noticing some small brown spots or streaks on my little dude and I'm really hoping it's not anything bad

    (pictures are in my gallery)

    he's acting perfectly normal but he's getting more and more of these brown spots?? Does it look like scale rot? What should I do?

    Hi,

    I can't see anything on those pictures aside from normal colouration?

    Yeah I think most of that is normal coloring. They do change color/pattern somewhat as they age. In one pic a couple scales look a little wonky, but not too bad. Maybe he just rubbed on something or that scale didn't shed right.

    I wouldn't guess that anything is wrong at this point, but, as always, keep an eye on him and call the vet if anything gets worse.
