Well if it looks pretty much like the pictures then your dragon is prolly about to shead. How long had it been there? How long have you had your dragon? Have you seen her shead before?

It looks like he is shedding if he is having issues you could try Shed Ease or Shed Aid you can get it a pet store that has reptile supplies I've used it many times to aid shedding in dragons.

ok i thought he was shedding but i just got nervous cause ive only had him a couple of weeks and its been there about probably 2 days and ive been misting him with warm water and i think im gonna give him a bath tomorrow so that should help

It will take them quite a while to shead, approx 2 weeks or a little more. Just do tha baths every few days and it will help. Do not pull on the shead at all, it will not help, even if you think it will. You can give them a little scratch or a rub, but do not pull. Just let it happen naturaly or you can damage the skin underneath. The only time you want to help is around the nail bed if it doesn't come off after a bit. This area can get stuck and can cut off circulation
