He's looking much better now! The skin all around the lighter spot has shed completely, and you can see the dark spots of his skin under the lighter spot now. The lighter spot is still stubbornly holding on, but it is starting look like right before it sheds now. He's still eating normally and...

I just posted, because my beardie has a spot that looks exactly the same. The vet I took him to (which wasn't an exotic, but was recommended) said it was either a bad shed or ringworm. I've been putting Lotramin on it, and it has slightly improved, but I've never seen anything like it before either.

So today, the skin around the white spot in the center has definitely shed, and looks normal underneath. The center is still really pale, like it has a really thick layer of skin, but it hasn't started shedding yet.

Hey everyone! My beardie is about three. I have had him for a little over a year and he has never had health issues. A few weeks ago I noticed a dark ring on his back, with a lighter spot inside. The light spot was just paler than his usual color, like right before a shed. Over the next week...

Thanks, I'll do that.

I've had my bearded dragon for almost a year now, and he's done great! However, just this week, he has started laying in his water dish. I know beardies don't really drink water, but I put the water dish in there to add a little humidity, since I live in Colorado. The water evaporates within...
