i noticed one on his tail and thought nothing of it but the past few days they have gotten worse i am really concerned what are they?
they ar all over him should i take him to a vet or is this natural?? people help!

Well I've never had that problem. I tried looking up stuff about it but couldn't find out a whole lot. I'm assuming you have given it a bath and paid extra attention to washing the "black spots"? I would definitely take it to a vet. It could be a fungus or a skin irritation from parasites or mites or skin not wanting to shed which could "rot" (sorry couldn't think of a nicer way to put it!). But anyway a vet should be able to tell you if it is something serious and how to treat it. If it's not serious you may be out some money but it's better than being with a sick ig!!
