Hello, I have a question about my bearded dragon's ears. Her name is Xenon and she's about a year and a half old. I noticed that there seem to be some kind of strange film over her ears, I never noticed this before, is this normal?

She's is very beautiful. Though fat deposits at the back of her head look depleted to me. MORE live bugs EACH DAY are called for.

The ear looks perfectly normal to me.

Reptiles with external ears like dragons the "film" your seeing is probably the tempanic membrane (ear drum in humans). The surface even sheds off with the rest of the skin, unless it's torn, red/swollen or bleeding it's probably just fine :)

I was going to say, I was almost positive that is the ear drum. They really are fascinating creatures, aren't they? I'm constantly learning, too!

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
