honestly, I'm really not sure.
its my daughters dragon, and i take care of her when she is not here.
we got her as a rescue about 6 months ago, she is missing a foot (we were told from bad breeding practices)
she is so sweet, i just don't want anything to happen to her

It really would be too hard to diagnose over picture, do you have a reptile vet near you that could look at it?
I'm leaning towards an infection, whether that started off as a cut or a bug bite. but sometimes they can develop growths too.
There isnt any way she could have burned herself in that spot right?
Either way, a reptile vet will be your best choice.
How is her activity levels? Is she acting fine?

I don’t think there is anyway she could have burned herself. She has been acting fine. I’m not sure where the closest reptile vet is, but the soonest i could get her there is Monday. I just wanted to get ideas and make sure it wasn’t something that couldn’t wait till monday
Here is a website to find a vet www.arav.org

Hello,
Hm, it does somewhat look like a burn but, it could also be a spider bite perhaps.
Do you know if crickets are ever left in the tank, they are terrible culprits of bites that usually
get infected.
If you have some raw, or manuka honey, you can go ahead & put some of that on the wound
to help with infection right now.
Is she eating normally?
I hope you are able to find a vet.
