Baby ambilobe (about 10 weeks). eating hydeis, dubias, crickets, phoenix worms. gut loading with chard, pomegranate, carrots and dino fuel. Dusting every other feeding with rapashy calcium plus, twice a week rep cal with d3, and twice a month with herptivite. They're lit 11 hours per day with a reptisun 5.0 and a 60 watt basking light. Temps range from 68 to 80 and humidity averages 65 70%. Using a mistking with r/o and hand misting with flukers liquid calcium. No live plants in his inclosure but gets a little free range time on a lady palm. He's in great shape otherwise and showing no adverse behavior. He is also the only one showing this condition.

I honestly don't know what that could be? Is it a hard mass or soft/fluid like?

The only thing I see to adjust right now is your rep cal with D3, I would only recommend that twice a month like the herptivite but that is only if you are not using the Calcium Plus. Calcium Plus already has D3 as well as vitamins so it shouldn't be used in combination with other supplements that contain them as well.
 
Could be a fat nodule. I have a female Cham that has very similar lumps but on both sides of her body.

If your cham is eating and drinking, and generally appears well hydrated I would just monitor.

If you're really concerned you could look for a vet with experience with Chams.

Keep us informed.
 
Seems to be a hard mass but its kind of hard to tell. I cant believe I didn't realize it had the d3, thanks for pointing that out. I will be making that adjustment today.

He appears to be thriving, he lets me mess with it without freaking out so i don't think it's painful and at this point it doesn't seem life threatening . The vet is the next step. I was just curious if anybody had seen this before.
I love my chams and would hate to see him suffer, so ill be watching closely. Thanks for the input.
