Tail discoloration

[Maria3104]

This is Kiwi. Her tail has been slightly discolored and noticing some lumpyness around the tip. Is this the early stages of tail rot?

Hi and welcome. I can’t say if that is tail rot or not. Has she had any injury to her tail? A cricket bite? From the looks of it, you most definitely need to get her to a vet before that spreads. There is probably infection or high risk for it and she’ll need antibiotic.
