Hi all,
My approximately 8-month-old beardie recently went through a full shed and thus just shed his beard yesterday. Ever since he came to me a couple of months ago, he's had a grey-ish beard, which I had thought was because he was about to shed, but instead it went very pale while in shed and has now returned to his usual grey color again. Here's a photo of him and his beard:
He otherwise has such beautiful and bright colors as well as a smooth white tummy (no stress marks) and is friendly, active, and alert. I've never seen his beard go fully black, and it only darkens a little when he's in the bath and clearly wishes he could be playing outside instead (lol). Can this be a normal color for a beard, or maybe a product of hormones as a growing young male?
