Usually beardies tail ends will get darker, i once thought the same thing about my adult female but it sheds fine and hasn't withered like most tails do with tail rot.
Sometimes it can be shed and they get darker and then lighter then but other times its just normal.

It's O.K, no tail rot there. And a very light stroking with a toothbrush for a bit is fine if it's shedding but don't actually scrub it, that can irritate it.

It looks like he is just shedding. Also around the end of the tail is usually darker like that, so don't worry!

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
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
