bone/bump/ or something else??

[andresaveiro]

Hello, I have noticed this thing for like 2 months now, my chameleon Mango, also known as Mr. Livingstone, has like a little bump on his neck. He doesn't seem to be bothered by it. As you can see he is super healthy, he is 5 months old.

Anyone knows what this is??? I know a member on this forums that had the same question. It would be wonderful if someone could help.

Here's a vid of him, I didn't know how to upload it from youtube so i'm just going to paste the link here...

If it were my chameleon I would take him to the vet.

I agree. I would have the vet look at this.

yeah vet it. it could be a number of things....wich is why a vet will have to look at it to clerify

Has it grown at all?

I'll take him to the vet as soon as possible... Nope it hasn't grown. It's just there. Any thoughts in what it might be?

its weird that its in the exact same spot on both sides.

Yes I know. That's why I thought it was a bone or something. A member called "Ziggy" or something like that has the same problem. BY THE WAY, anyone knows of a good reptile vet here in Minnesota?

Thanks for the responses.

You can call and check out these vets and see if they know anything about chameleons......they are not a personal refference (which is always best) but are on the list in the health section here on the forums. http://www.herpvetconnection.com/minnesota.shtml
