Not open for further replies.
I just joined this site but read the forms on here for a long time. I been reading a lot about yellow fungus and I seen a discolour on my beared dragon belly ( I'll show you in a moment )


He's three years old male and is a hypo citrus tiger leatherback it can of looks like a bad shad but I'm so paranoid. I give him a bath and brushed with a baby tooth brush it didn't come off but could it take a few baths? Please someone respond


Here's him when he's heated up

Here's the discolour I'm talking about his a little darker as he hasn't fully warmed up yet I just couldn't wait to take the photo

Hi there Loki, that is actually an uneven shed pattern that often looks dark on the belly especially .
He's a very pretty boy + looks very healthy. :)

If it's a bad shed why didn't it come off when I bathed him or does it takes a few warm baths to get rid of I'm so worried

Hi there, an uneven shed on an adult beardie can take weeks to come off. there's nothing to worry about, it comes off in it's own time. :) And yes, I have had dragons with similar sheds. Don't give excessive baths, just do as usual. You can spritz him in the tank once a day to create a little more humidity too.

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
