Can you post a picture for us?

Is it like an abnormal growth coming off the back? Like on the spine?

The dragon appears to be malnourished and might have MBD based on the crooked spine. None of this could have happened in the less than week that you've had him, it was from previous husbandry.

What is your setup like?
And what does the daily diet consist of?

Looking back at the pictures, I can not tell if that spine looks irregular, or if the guy is just skin and bones. Getting him on a healthy diet and in proper lighting will work wonders in determining if that spine is ok, or if it has suffered effects from MBD.

Meeko mostly eats crickets dusted with calcium and a small meal worm or 2 because that was all he ate for them. So what should i Intel i can get him to the vet?

My babys bump just peeled off! so i take it, it was just dead skin build up?

You can see the big blob of light gray is where it was.
