Hello Everyone,
Was wondering if this dark mark under his chin area is normal?

Heres an earlier photo of him
He must have rubbed his chin on something. Was wondering if it will go back to normal?
Just looks like the pigment on those scales is dark for one reason or another. Shouldn't be an issue though and I'd guess it will turn back to normal after a while. I don't see signs of damage, they just look stuck in black mode at the moment.

Thanks. It does look better today, still a little black though. Interesting how it goes black I thought maybe he scraped the scales off or something.
Damaged scales might look raw/wounded or even pinkish if bare skin was shown after being removed. They are able to change the color (or at least shade) of their skin otherwise.
