You should probably fill this out: https://www.chameleonforums.com/how-ask-help-66/ (it is the "How to Ask for Help" right at the top of the Health Forum, if the link does not work)

Just going off your pic, it looks like the little guy is dehydrated, but if you fill out the form the experts may be able to give you more advice. If something is wrong with your husbandry then you will need to fix it.
 
Shouldn't speculate, but have seen some pics of discoloured limbs like that and people have suggested a bruise, so how far is the furthest it could fall, and any walking problems?
Also, fill the form if you want no more speculation.......I never even kept a pygmy so don't listen too much to me.......

ha:eek: I didnt even notice a discolored limb, just thought the eye looked sunken...I second the speculation is no good...as well as the "dont listen too much to me!"
 
that's what I was thinking was the white around the mouth? That is not normal Lisa is it? I was looking at some other pygmy pics and did not see white mouths.

Looks dehydrated, I don't see a discoloured limb (?). Is your concern the white around it's mouth?
Ok, easy, lol. Ignore me almost 100%, but fill out the form.....
 
She has passed away i just found her on the bottom of the viv :(

I'm so sorry for your loss. These little guys are very delicate, and it's been my experience that by the time you notice there's a problem, it's too late. Also, I don't know how much can be done even if you sought veterinary care.

If you have others (or are thinking about getting another), why not fill out the "how to ask for help" form, and we can take a look at your husbandry.

Take care of yourself right now. Some people might say it was only a little lizard, but they do leave big holes in our hearts when they pass.

No, I've not seen that before either, so that was my concern. That, and the dehydration. If it was wc, which they often are, it's not surprising that it may have had problems. Plus, you can never tell how old they are when you get them that way. Sucks! Been there, done that, and still doing it :(
