[/img]My adult beardie has developed a dark black discoloration of skin. It's growing in size and is on the left side of her back. It looks fungal.

He has had it for a few months now

Many thanks

WOW!!!!
That looks like a BAD burn. You need to get him to a QUALIFIED HERP VET that is knowledgeable about dragons. This looks very serious.

Thank you it's quiet a big heat lamp so possible for her to touch. When I'm home I'll take a pic. ?

Get some pics of the tank showing how close she can get to the lamp and post more pics of the wound area as well.

Hello,

At first glance, it does look like a burn, but, it could also be fungal.
We do need to see the tank setup though, to see how close to the heat lamp she is getting.
What wattage is the lamp?
Are you able to get her to the vets?

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
