Took my girls out for some sun and I noticed this on her skin (Amber) is it because she is getting ready to shed? Or is it something I should worry about? Just odd I know they shed in patches but these are large patches

Is it normal to only be on the sides? I have had issues like this before but they shed the entire underbelly and back/spine but never like this. This didn't seem natural but I guess every dragon is different!! 😅

Thank you!
Mine do it all the time in fact Blaze is shedding his back legs 1/4 of his back and front legs -- he has been shedding all summer

Especially as they get older and their growth slows, shedding is often done in patches/areas at a time as opposed to full body.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
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.
