Hi guys, my beardie has clogged femoral pores, they don't look too swollen but have the crusty bits. I have read that I should give him warm baths to help them fall off? Is that all I can do? And how often and for how long should his baths be? I also noticed while I was giving him a bath just now that he had a very small black area under one of the scales on his tail... the scale also seemed a little loose. It's hard to tell from the picture but I have no idea what that could be. Maybe he just scraped his tail on his log?

I would really appreciate any advice! Thanks!

Hi there, can you post pics of his femoral pores ? Many times they are just normal . And better pics of the dark spot, it's hard to tell from that pic if there's any concern.

I can't seem to take a better picture of the spot on his tail because the spot is so tiny, im probably just worried for nothing since he's my baby ? I'll keep a close eye on it. His pores definitely look clogged to me but this is the first time he's had an issue with this in his 8 years so I'm not too sure how to take care of it before it requires vet attention.

Those aren't bad, just give him a warm 10 minute soak every other day, or even every day if he likes it. Use a soft toothbrush to gently stroke the areas. Makes sure he has rough areas in the tank like logs + rocks to drag his legs across, that helps too.

Do you have pics of his tank ?

That's good to hear! And also good that he enjoys his bath time. His tank has plenty of logs and he spends his day going from one to the other so I'm surprised he's having this issue. Thank you for the help!

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.
