He’s been behaving normally, and he currently is in shed. If you look closely in the picture, two scales are black- should I take him to the vet?

Hi there, can you post more pictures with his tail flat out behind him ? I don't see anything harmful there.

Hello,

I agree, the picture shows a normal tail. Sometimes during pre-shed phases, scales can look off
in color. They oftentimes develop what I call freckles, or a darker spot on the scale here & there
that is perfectly harmless.

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
