Does anybody know what this is???on his belly and along the edge of his mouth???? He is eating, coming out of hide very social and shedding.

The photos are small and hard to make out but if the lesions are raised and fluid filled or were once fluid filled and now dried over, you might want to contact a vet. There are various bacterial conditions that result in pustules/blisters that are generically referred to as blister disease. The etiology differs and numerous causative organisms have been identified. A good vet would run a culture and prescribe the most effective antibiotic. A cheaper option would be to forgo the culture and hit it with a broad spectrum antibiotic but this can sometimes end up costing more in the long run with a second office visit and additional medication when the condition does not clear up with the first treatment.

Your uro might be eating well and social right now but if this is bacterial, this condition can become systemic at which time the problem becomes critical and can easily spiral into a fatal outcome.

If the lesions are not raised and/or crusty/dried over, you can describe the condition for more guesses but your best bet would be to see a professional as they can run diagnostics and all we can do is provide a little speculation via typing.

The lesions are dried but do feel raised. There does not seem to be any fluid in them, but I just didn't like the look of them Unfortunately there isn't a good rep. vet in my city but I am looking into one in the next town.
Thanks for the help
Mike

You can check www.herpvetconnection.com or www.arav.org for a good herp vet - herp vets are generally scattered so dont be suprised if you have to drive quite a ways (I drive 3-4 hours to mine)
