Hello I just got my first dragon a couple weeks ago. About 3 days ago the scales around the tip of his mouth turned white and has not gotten bigger or smaller. I am not sure if it is the start of a shed or what. The only change in his behaivior is the he will not touch he greens like he alway did before but is still going crazy over his live feeders. I hope i am just worring to much but thought i should ask incase it could be something else. My camera isn't good enough to get a real good pic to show it.
