So I'm home from work, I bathed dracos tail.. and notice bumps along her backside.. anyone know what this is? Also I noticed several different areas of poop/pee stains and one whole poop/pee.. (not like she ran through it, but like as if she tried to go several times) is that bad ? Also when I was holding her she opened up I guess her butthole to poop. So I quickly put her in her tank, but she didn't go..

Bumps along her back side like underneath her tail along her thighs??? If so, those are called femoral pores and they all have them. In boys they are more pronounced and can get clogged so you want to make sure when you give a bath that you gently rub them a soft brush to keep them clean. Never squeeze them to get anything out of them.

Multiple areas of poop is not a problem, just shows she's eating well. When they poop they don't immediately close up the vent area, it sorta slowly closes in a minute. I noticed with mine, after they poop they scoot their bottom along the floor like a dog or cat does.

Ohhh ok I was worried thinking she may be clogged up. And yup along her thighs, I'll be getting a new toothbrush for her then. I noticed those pores were a bit dark yesterday so I guess something got in them.

You should be able to tell by now. Usually the boys get the darker more dirty looking pores.
