He’s been extremely stressed recently, most likely due to me redoing my room. For about 2 weeks, though, his finger has slowly been swelling up more,which I think is due to a stuck shed. I don’t know what this is, so. I’d appreciate any help
 
if it is because of shedding problems try soaking him in warm water with diluted betadine, only if its because of shedding of course, has he shed the rest of his body recently? Also try not to stress him out as much as he is probably in pain. it could be a broken finger or an injurey i would suggest taking him to the vet, hope your beardie gets better soon:]

Yup Seems to be a shed issue. Their shed skin can act like a rubber band restricting blood flow, If your using distilled water that can dehydrate their skin try using spring water or regular water treated with ReptiSafe.I would raise my humidity a bit but I'd scope it out further to see if it was shed skin and not something worse. Warm soak maybe scrub with a tooth brush if not forceful or rough maybe offer rocks and other rough surfaces in his enclosure so he has something to rub on and against to help with future sheds.

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
