I have super news :blob5: Custard has completely shed and the dark spots came off with the old skin! :D I am still feeding him the acidophiliz(finally got it in the mail a few days ago) and rubbing the clotrimazole on his back morning and night(just to be sure). I believe that he is now a...

Wow! I can't wait to see the how-to. Is that a repurposed piece? You did a great job.

Well I have some great news! Custard's vet left me a voicemail that the fecal test came back negative for coccidia! Yay :D She says that some beardie's poos are wetter than others. She says as long as it isn't pure mush, that I have nothing to worry about. Only, Custard did have a mushy poo...

I have stopped the ponazuril. I plan to get a fecal done tomorrow. The cardboard works really well. I live with two roommates, so there is always a carboard box on hand if he chooses to poo on the one he is using. I'm still waiting on the CHE and the acidophiliz :? He should shed soon. I have...

The areas cropped up after the ponazuril. His vet has him on it for 28 days... It's only like 3 drops a day. Another fecal has not been done. We were going to once the 28 days was up. Should I ask her if I can cease the ponazuril and have a fecal done early? I will go get some betadine. I will...

As you can hopefully see, the discoloration has spread on his back but has all but dissipated on his elbow. Some of his scales are a little flaky.

How sweet! He has made such an improvement from barely being able to walk to standing on his two hind legs! Your story is inspiring and gives me hope for my sick beardie. Thank you :)

Hi Tracie. Thanks for your response. I asked for a skin culture, but Custard's vet said that would be too costly to jump to right away. She prescribed him the clotrimazole two weeks ago tomorrow (since 1/28). The spot on his elbow is lighter, but the one on his back is larger and darker in the...

Beardie Parents, I just pmed Tracie. Thanks for the reference. TheDragonKeepers, I kind of hope that it is a bruise. Last week, when it started first showing up, I did bump him against his terrarium lid when I was taking him out. I can't wait until he sheds his body. It shouldn't be too long...

So Custard is now on clotrimazole 1%, as prescribed by his vet. The spot on his back has gotten darker :( The one on his elbow appears lighter. Some scales around his back have turned black. I put the liquid on him morning and night, and he hates it. He scratches at it with his hind legs while I...

Does no one else know what it could be?

Aw thank you! I think so too :)

He sheds in the pattern of body, feet, tail, head. He is getting ready to shed his tail, yes. Yes I hope someone else knows. I will probably still take him to the vet, but the visits really add up.

Hm... You know I didn't think of that. I'll post a pic of more of his body so you can see his colors.
