You can't see it very well on the picture, but i nnoticed a change on his tail, is this normal as they grow or is it something i should be worried about? I would really appriciate your oppinions!

Not normal. Did he hurt his tail.......maybe the cage door got closed on it or something?

No i dont have a door, i just have a scrren i remove.. Can it be something else?

It doesn't look that serious to me at this point. I would definetly keep an eye on it to see if it turns into something worse, like an infection.

I enlarged the picture so his tail was half the screen, and it doesn't look muck like a problem. For the tail to swell there has to be a reason so keep a close eye on it but at this point I would watch & not worry.
