so called "fat pockets"?...help

boba fett Jul 19, 2003 03:47 PM

I wondering about "fat pockets"...I read on here awhile back that these "pockets' are located near the underarms/sides of the dragon...My Dragon(2 years old)(19in. 450 grams) seems to have decent sized fat pockets...i can feel some 'squishy matter' under the skin on both sides in these places...I feed greens, pellets, silk worms...all the temps are right and lighting and supplements....

are these 'pockets' normal?...

TRhanks for the time
