I recently noticed something on two of my leo geckos that I have never seen before. Both of them seem to have something like air pockets of bubbles or something under the skin right behind their front legs. It's on both sides of their bodies. The air bubbles are soft and I can only seen them when their legs are bent.



At first I thought it might have been something to do with a resperitory infection, but they don't seem to be having trouble breathing and there are no other symptoms that would suggest a resperatory infection.



They are my top two breeders and are in excellent condition. The temps are normal and they are eating fine. I haven't seen this in any books or online and I need to know if it is nothing or something that should be treated right away. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.



Emily
