New beardie owner here! I've had my little guy for about a month. He's approximately 5 months old. About 8 inches long, Healthy eater. Pooper, active and alert (for what I can tell) has already shed once.

Kept in a ten gallon tank on repticarpet. Basking light is a flukers sun spot 100w mercury vapor bulb
<<<< exchange for an Arcadia or Zoo Med or Exo Terra MVB , Flukers MVBs are very bad quality, poor quality quartz used that will leak UVC.

uvb light Is a reptisun 5.0 13w
<<<, too weak , at the very least exchange this for an Exo Terra 25W UVB200.
see for guidance : viewtopic.php?f=34&t=235611
Basking temp ranges from 95 to 105/110
<<< NEVER HOTTER THAN 40 degC at the basking spot , see this for why : viewtopic.php?f=5&t=233516
Cool side is usually in high 80s low 90s

Upon bringing him home I realized he was missing one of his long back toes. Perhaps it was bitten in the shop he was housed with multiple dragons, never has bled....
<<< if the stump has healed , nothing to be done.
<<< if it's a fresh injury …. keep it clean and give the entire foot daily soaks in dilute Betadiene solution ( a shot glass is perfect for this ) , simply add Betadiene a few drops at a time until the solution looks like weak tea.
I soak him so its easier for him to shed. Just kind of worried cuz it's always been a bit discolored.
Photo so we can see if there is a problem.

I've been keeping a close eye on it just wanted a second opinion
