Here he is!..... Lukey's Back!

blotch Nov 21, 2003 12:09 AM

G'day All! Long time no see! "What's lukey been up to?" I hear you asking, well now - I've purchased a female Eastern for $40 and it was a well spent $40! As soon and I put the new Eastern with Lil (one of my 3 Male Blotched Blueys), Lil decided to have a dip and get his end wet, and now won't stop! Blotch/Eastern Hybrids - Sweeeet! The Eastern is missing a foot and a toe on one of her other feet, and seems to have re grown a tail, poor girl has been through some poo. Anyway, Lil (Blotched), has developed these sores around his mouth. Upon closer inspection I have noticed that underneath the jaw, a couple of the affect scales are slightly raised. I will post pics in the attached posts. I have housed Lil and the Eastern together to promote breeding which has worked. The eastern has none of the symptoms, only grazes from Lil mauling her. Lil has also gone off eating for a while however has not lost any weight and his fat reserves look good. His eyes are clear and hasn't taken a dump due to the lack of eating. If anyone has any Idea what this could be I would appreciate your help.

Luke ~|=|>

Sorry about the finger in the Eastern pic!

The sores are pretty much directly in line with her eye. The sores are the same color as what you saw underneath her jaw. All sores are NOT pussy. There is no weeping at all. Could this just be a bite from the eastern when lil has gone to grasp her?

Looks like some nice skinks. Would love to see them on a background that doesn't hide the colors of the skinks so much. Thanks, Mike
