Hi,
I have a 2-3 month old little baby dragon. Last night, my cat got into his room. His tank is closed and there's no way the cat could get to him, but I think the incident spooked him. His beard had a little black on the lower part last night, and it still looks that way now. I've included a picture.
I should note he's also being treated for parasites he got from being stuck with other beardies (and their poop) before we adopted him. He's getting meds and eating and behaving just fine, but the beard has me worried.
Is this because of the dragon's stress or am I just overthinking it? Can he be harmed in some way by this stress? (Like a heart attack or ulcers or something?) or will he be ok now that we know to keep the cat away from even his tank?
