Swollen & gray lower legs

[HampusDragon]

Hi there,
Does this look like gout? I noticed this a few days ago and hoped it was pre-shed but now I am learning that gout is a possibility! Hampus gets salad every day and a 4-6 roaches or BSFL every other day usually. He also enjoys the Buffet Blend pellets from Flukers but still no more than 4-6 every few days - alternating with live insects. He wasn't eating greens very much for a while, but he is enjoying them again. This is happening on all 4 legs. Thank you!

That is shed -- they can swell at times to loosen the shed -- if it was gout he would be real touchy and it is painfull --

Hello,

That is just some swelling from the area getting ready to shed. The scales on top trap water in between
the top & underneath layer when developing. It should be fine once the areas all shed.
