#2274865 Squirmzx View Profile	Argus Monitor health concern Wondering if anyone knows what this bump is on the back of my 1.5 year old Argus Monitor, he was fine and didn’t have it when i shut his light off last night then when i turned it on this morning he was having a hard time using his back legs to walk and moving really slowly then i noticed the bump on his spine just above his tail. http://i918.photobucket.com/albums/ad25/Token_21/0729121044d.jpg http://i918.photobucket.com/albums/ad25/Token_21/0729121044.jpg http://i918.photobucket.com/albums/ad25/Token_21/0729121045a.jpg http://i918.photobucket.com/albums/ad25/Token_21/0729121043.jpg I don’t know if i should take him to a vet or if this will heal and blow away, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Is it a bite ...can you see anything like a spider bite...irritated scales ...I had a snake that got a zit or something similar under a scale and I popped it and cleaned it ...it healed just fine.

Congrats and all the best to you and your Argus
