Dots on lip?

[jn55]

Hello,
I've had a baby leopard gecko for about three weeks now and everything has been fine up until a couple of days ago. I noticed that he had a black dot on his lip under his eyes on both sides of his jaw. After a couple of days it seems as if the black dots are spreading along his lips. Anyone have any clue whats going on with my little guy?

I should also add that he has been acting completely normal in those days, eating as much as usual and moving around just as much as he usually does. He eats gutloaded and dusted mealworms and crickets. Thanks in advance.

Can you post a pic showing the questioned area?

yea pics not helpful too blurry Could it possibly just be he's colors maturing?? As they grow and mature and go through sheds their colors and pattern change a lot. Try to get a pic maybe farther away using zoom.

Hey sorry about that here are some other pictures. He shed about a week ago, and I noticed the spots about a day or two after that so that could be it. Atleast I hope so.

Without seeing it in person, it looks like he's getting cute little lip freckles. As they grow, spotting comes and/or goes, it's normal.

Hey thanks so much. It's the first time I've had a gecko this young I guess I was just a little paranoid. Thanks again.
