Strange Spot

Dizzy has a yellow spot on his chest, I was wondering what you guys think it is. It's probably just weird pigmentation, its all normal other than the color. Big yeah, anyways, here's his spot:



And a gratuitous extra shot just for looking at the thread:

Hello,

Has the spot been there or did it just form? How long has it been there?

I don't think that it is anything to worry about. It is most likely just what you thought, a defect in the pigment.

Awww - Lacey, that must be your spot, close to his heart

I wouldn't worry too much unless there is any major change in the size of it or lumps accompanying it.

Dizzy sure is a handsome boy though

Lacy I am not seeing anything that looks out of the ordinary. Probably just coloration maturing.

I know, i'm paranoid I just noticed it and thought it was weird that i've never seen it before, but then again I haven't spent a whole lot of time handling him lately because he is being a real hormonal pest (and turning a pretty orange color...and leaving 'presents' all over everything) So it's just, waking him up, making his food, taking him out to go potty, and then leaving his cage open after work to give him the option to come out, but for the most part he is content to stay in his cage.
