I have an older leopard gecko he is about 7 years old and a rescue. Today When I picked him up I noticed he had an odd thing of both him front "arm pits" it thought they were tumors but they aren't lumps they feel like fluid but don't feel hard and he isn't mad or in pain so I really have no idea what to do. I also thought it might just be him getting obese. Any help would be greatly appreciated. He is like my baby and I want him to be healthy and happy. Thank you.

This is pretty common, but it's hard to tell for sure whether something is wrong without a picture. If your gecko is particularly "well fed," :) he is probably just storing excess fat and fluid behind his armpits. Many leos do this, and unless there's something else that's unusual, it's most likely nothing to worry about.

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
