Does anyone have information on mites? I was recently out with friends and some of them have experience with reptiles. They had a savannah monitor. I was telling them my issue with my beardie not eating in his own. The discussion of mites came up and they said that I should quarantine my bearded dragon and use a mite spray. At home, I did some googling on mites and bearded dragons. While I was syringe feeding him, I noticed some black dots, not sure if these are mites or I’m just overthinking things. Don’t mind the food on my hands, feeding time can get a bit messy. Lol

Hi there,

Those black marks are just stress marks. Not mites at all :)

If you google bearded dragon stress marks you'll see lots of pictures like that.

Ah thank you for the clarification. I knew the black stripes were stress marks, just didn’t think the dots were too. My husband already ordered a mite spray, should I still use it as maintenance or no?

I wouldn't. No point in treating what isn't there :) If he just ordered, hopefully he can cancel the order for a refund.

Mites aren't really that common of a problem so it's not even really something the average hobbyist needs to keep on hand.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
