Anyone who has heard about Belize befoer knows he's a little wild man. He's active and crazy and fisty and doesn't like to be held.. Well lately.. he's been really tame..l;aying around with all his feet spread out and just laying there.. not going after my feet when I get out of bed, not going after the thing I use to scoop his poo and not really eating much of any vegitation(he'll still eat meal worms and I haven't tried crickets in awhile because of this....... he's got what look like a canker sore startingo n his left side of his top lip.. it's a little poofy, bnot HUGE but it is kind of crusty and welty looking.. it's on his gums too.. well not the krusty part but it's umm dicolored.. alittle brown.
So I made an appointment for tomorrow, but I was wondering if anyone knwe what it might be.

I hope i can fix him.. I don't like this calm Belize.

OH YEAh and P.S. he has been shedding for about two weeks now and he's got these really odd colored patches on his tail and back.. it may just be new skin, but it looks almost transparent.
so that's all.. hope someone knows wat it is.
thanks
