    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hey there, I'd appreciate any and all input as to what everyone thinks this could be. A little background info this dragon - just came to me a few weeks ago. He is a hypo trans leatherback. He is missing a hand on his left front but it is completely healed and does not affect him. He has a great appetite and seems healthy and active.

I noticed this bump on his back recently. I don't remember if it was there when I received him or not, but I believe it was. The breeder said this baby has been separated from all siblings since his arm nip as a 1 week old baby and has had no other injuries, injections, or anything. It isn't tender or sore, he has no reaction when I press on it. It has not changed in size since I've noticed it. It feels like a hard 'boney' bump. I don't believe it is movable, it seems like it's fixed in place. The growth/bump in question is on the bottom RIGHT side of the dragon in the pictures.

I'm a vet tech and will be bringing him into my work sometime soon, but would like to hear opinions from everyone since our tight knit dragon community seems to know more than the vets sometimes. Thanks so much!
