 Butt Bumps

So I was doing my big tank cleaning today. I noticed that my big male anole has two noticeable bumps at the base of his tail (underside). Is this normal? I can post pictures if need be, I didn’t want to stress him out to horribly much today. Btw, this is the same one with the respritory infection. I was cleaning the tank do I could change the substrate so my humidity would be more controlled. Any guesses or information as to what this is are greatly appreciated! :)

This is the best one I have, he was being horribly uncooperative.

Have you looked at Atrax’s anole sexing chart to see if perhaps those bumps are part of his genitals? Sorry if this is a ridiculous suggestion :) but I couldn’t tell from the pic.

They might be, he is a boy. That’s probably what they are. It just struck me as odd because his brother doesn’t have them.

That may not be it at all....or you may have a male and female? It does sound like post anal scales.....but I could be totally off!! Check out the pic he has posted.
