Possible tail rot?

Hello, I’m a new beardie owner and recently purchased my beardie Moana (daughter is a fan lol) from a pet store. Can anyone confirm if this is tail rot?

It looks dead on the end --- keep an eye on it maybe take pics of it -- if it starts to creep up the tail you may need to take him to the vet - in the mean time you can put some raw unpasteurized honey on it -- manuka is good -- the honey will kill any infection going on --- just make sure you do NOT leave any crickets in the tank they will go straight for that tail -- if feeding them feed 1-2 at a time so you know how many are in the tank or feed in a separate container

Thank you so much! Will definitely take your advice and keep an eye on it. Will it just fall off eventually?

Hello,

I agree, it appears that there was a little bit of a tail injury on the end possibly. Has it gotten
injured somehow, or gotten pinched in the door or lid?
If the tip is hard or brittle then it will most likely break off but at the moment, it doesn't look as
if it is infected at all right now. Antibiotic ointment or coconut oil could help out for the end.

Thank you for responding! She wasn’t hurt in our care. My husband got her from a pet store. I noticed the tail on the first day but was unaware of the potential severity. We assumed it could have been an injury.
 
aww She's a pretty little girl, I agree honey is really helpful just watch for those crickets, other than that she looks alright, make sure she's getting enough UVB and is basking healthily.

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.
