TLDR; baby bearded dragon made a popping sound when trying to beard but has no symptoms of URI should I be worried or is this normal?
My lil man (we suspect man at least) is about 4/5 months old. He is currently dealing with some eyelid trauma which has us applying some ointment morning and night and monitoring it. Because of this we have noticed heightened stress from him and have witnessed him attempt to beard for the first time.
Now I knoooow bearding isn’t a good thing cause it shows stress and discomfort but it’s the cutest little thing watching him puff :lol: (I would NEVER do it intentionally tho)
Anyways back to my question.
Today I got home late and very sadly had to wake him in order to do his meds... which made him VERY MAD. When he bearded today at the very end we noticed his “lips” made a popping sound. Is this normal for babies learning how to use their beard? I tried doing a Google search and the whole internet was like “URI URI”, which we will monitor for other symptoms of... but like I said it seems like it’s his lips popping as he tries bearding and not his chest or throat or anything. He also does not have any other symptoms and his humidity never gets higher than 35, if anything we struggle keeping it above 25.
Is the pop semi-normal? Should we be worried about a URI? We are going to the vet in 4 days for his eye anyways, but should we try to get him in sooner?
