I've found a spot on my tegu's lower abdomen on the side near where his leg meets his body.. it looks as if his skin is sort of indented and there's an orangish circle around it... I'll try to get a picture up as soon as I can.. I don't know what it could be, but I don't know what scale rot is and thats the first thing that came to my mind. Are there any other possibilities? It doesn't hurt him to touch it. It could be nothing, it could be something. I'd rather be safe than sorry..

thanks, Scott.
