There is a bulge on the tip of one of the front claws on my bearded dragon, will it heal and what can I do to help it heal?

Hi, that's some type of infection + may go away on it's own. One of my dragons developed a bulged toe years ago but it never progressed any further and she had it all her life.

It might also be swelling related to shedding on the fingers. If that's the case the swelling should reduce after the skin on the fingers has shed. Another possibility is that it is a symptom of gout. Either way I'd keep an eye on it to see if the area gets more swollen, if more areas become swollen, or if the finger starts to look wounded.

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

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
