Hello everyone ! I am new to this website so let me know if I should place this in a different forum. But I am looking to adopt a bearded dragon and found a man on Craigslist trying to re home his because he is too busy to care for her . Now I'd love to adopt this dragon who is five years old but her belly worries me . He says he believes it's from her sun rock being to hot but isn't sure , I've attached pictures below. I just can't afford to take her to the vet if I adopt her so I'm looking for some people with insight to let me know what the cause of this may be .

I really want to adopt this cute dragon off of Craigslist . Sadly I don't have money for a vet visit , can anyone tell me if I should be concerned by the state of her belly ? Her owner says it might be from a burn on her rock but he isn't sure .

Hello,

It looks like they have already given a bath & the scales are still the same? I don't think it is
fungal but old shed scales that haven't come off yet. I think a burn would look much worse
than that.
Oh she is still in the hands of the owner right now & you are wanting to adopt her? Her tummy
would only be burned from a rock if the rock was a heat rock & it got too hot. We do not
recommend the use of heat rocks because of those types of malfunctions.

Yes she is still with her owner . I'm just afraid that because I've never owned a bearded dragon that getting one who has a disease would be bad. But she lives a sad life and I want to give her a good home

Hello,

How are things with that dragon, did you decide to take her in? I was just wondering. :D

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
