Should I be concerned?

My oldest beardie has recently started showing his spine quite a bit here recently. Is this something I should be concerned about? If so, what is the cause and how do I fix it? Nothing has changed in housing or eating. Any advice?

Idk about weight, I have to buy new scales. He doesn't look skinny tho. He is almost 4 years old. His last shed was about a month ago, but it was his head only. His last body shed was over 2 months ago. He eats like a pig, I soak him 2x/week. I would say his spine started showing about 3 weeks ago. It hasn't gotten any worse or any better since I noticed it. I'll post pics of him shortly!

hard to tell from that pic. doesnt really look like anything to worry about. please get those scales as weight monitoring can be a huge factor in determining if there are problems with a dragons health.
he's a handsome little devil:)

Thank you! Is the spine showing just normal in some or is it normally an issue? Will try to get better pic.

I can sort of see his spine sticking out...but I wouldn't worry too much if he's acting normal and eating normal.
