Sorry if you can’t see it well but his tail has gotten lighter than most of his body.
I’m assuming he’s about to shed his tail, just making sure! (first beardie, i’m kinda paranoid about everything)

Hmm... A day or so ago I turned on his lights, and noticed his tail was a bright orange, no sign of shed anywhere. Could he shed it overnight and somehow ‘disposed’ of the shed? Or did his tail randomly decide to fade and then vibrantly come back? Now his body is becoming less colorful, so now I think he’s gonna shed his body. Any thoughts?
It's possible the tail shed quickly and the skin was either hidden or eaten. They do shed in patches, especially as they get older. If the rest of his body is starting to dull, then that probably indicates another shed is about to start.
