Reptiles - my chinese water ddragon


Expert: BPC - 10/23/2009

Question
i have had my male chinese water dragon like 2 weeks or so, and i knwo a little bit about them. He has thes lil tiny tan things coming out of his scale a few places on his body, and one of his toes is swollen should i be worried, i don't knwo if its normal for a water dragons skin to look like that what.

Answer
Not normal, w/o being able to see it I can't be sure but it sounds like what I call blister disease.  Which is usually caused by improper humidity (too much# and heat #not enough).  Fix those things and watch him.  if his appetite wains at all or the bumps don't clear within 4-5 days call the vet.
