I have a few like that and i have asked my vet what they were and he explained to me that they were fat pockets. I don't know if it's correct buy that's what i have been told.

Yes fat pockets, they are best for breeding females, if it's not a female and not for breeding purposes try to feed them less and take them out for exercise :)

One of the vets i went to before i found a great herp vet, wanted to "pop" the bubble with a needle. I am so glad i didn't allow her to do that. That was when i first kept herps (i would say in the first 3 months) and didn't know too much about them.
