Roof of mouth coloration

[falcodude95]

Hello everyone!

I posted the other week about a sore on the bottom of my beardie's mouth. While the sore at the bottom of his mouth has started to fade (although it is still there) I noticed a redness on the roof of his mouth. Is this normal? I sent pictures over to my vet but have yet to hear back from them.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Yeah I think that part is normal. It seems like I remember my guys being the same.

Hello,

The yellow color in his mouth is a recessive genetic trait from the P Barbata for self defense in the wild.
They do tend to have reddish colors on the roof of their mouths too. Overall the mouth appears healthy.

Hello,

Yes, they sure do! Well, in the wild, the bright yellow
would help to ward off a predator perhaps!
