scale question, help?

[new2tegus]

So I noticed a couple of days ago Jekyll has a light gray blue colored scale on top of his head. He is in good health and just finished shedding. So I'm not sure if that's why or if it's fungal. His humidity is about 85% or so, and it's a cypress eco earth mix. He's eating regularly 3-4 fuzzies a day. Temps are about 105 -108 range basking and mid 80's on the cool side. Thoughts?

Pics will help, but I would guess it is nothing but a odd-colored scale.

I will try and grab a pic soon, ty, I was thinking that but wanted to be sure

Miscolored scale on his head? "You're a lizard, Harry."

Hopefully, it's just a beauty mark and nothing wrong!

I will try and get pictures,but there is more now, so I'm taking him to the vet. Going to see what I can do in the meantime to help.

More? Uh oh.. sounds like a fungus. Luckily, there's plenty of stuff you can get for it.

Any suggestions, I've just been doing hot water with some salt right now,and watered down betadine. Anything else that would help. Stores that might carry something ?

Yeah Petsmart and Petco both carry anti-fungal sprays for reptiles.. stick a q-tip in there and rub it on his head :]
