Please help.
My bearded dragon (7 months old) went to bed happy and healthy last night. he woke up this morning with ONE side of his beard all puffy. It has now been like that for 8 hours. not any bigger but definitely not smaller. he is eating and moving around as normal.
those are corn kernels that i put there for him to eat, as he loves them. the lump is very soft to touch. when it came up it was more than 12 hours since he last ate. it has gone down a little since he had his crickets this afternoon, but the side that was puffy is a little black and the skin is a bit saggy from where it was puffed up.
what do you think it is? do i need to get him to a vet?
