Do you mean the slight swelling where his 2nd toe joins the foot ? It seems a little swollen, does he have a mesh hammock ? Sometimes they snag a toenail + can sprain a toe. If not, check to see if there might be a tiny cut under the toe that might be an opening for infection. There's a possibility of gout, too. Is he limping or walking normally ?

Yes he had repti carpet I trashed it when I saw the swelling I'm not sure if it's that or a abscess of some type I'll get a better photo in a second with the microscope I use to sex trantulas

He also walks fine has no real issues I've had the old man for 10 years so I know all the care stuff is right just not sure wtf it is or can be. Just like to keep an eye on this stuff since he is fairly old

Hello,

I was wondering what the reddish color is on the underneath side there on his small toe?
It could be an injury but the way it appears it might be gout also. Are there any other areas
on his hands or feet, etc that have any type of swelling starting?
Since he is older, that might make sense. Is he good about eating greens & taking in any
fluids at all?

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
