Ok. Thanks for the info. He goes to the vet next monday so hopefully if thats what I've done it can be treated. In the meantime, I've cleaned his tail with betadine solution and put triple antibiotic ointment on it just as a safety measure. The shed from his leg fell off today and the scales...

Ok good. My main concern was that I assisted with the shed and thought it was bare skin. I checked on him a little bit ago and it appears to be a darker brown color now. I did notice a small wound that probably happened when I assisted. I did put some triple antibiotic ointment on it and will...

Here is a pic of my setup. 40 gal cage, 100 watt basking bulb, a 24in 17watt reptisun uvb t8 lighting fixture, 2 hammocks, sandstone basking rocks and a water dish.

Ok great! Yes it is a T8 bulb and i have it mounted inside the cage.

I used a toothbrush to help loosen the shed and it started coming off. He hasn't been outside in the sun as its winter here and nothing in his cage has been changed except for a new uvb bulb. Im using a 24in 17 watt reptisun 10.0 bulb which I've used since i got him a year ago. Only reason for...

So my beardie is going through a shed. I gave him a bath and got most of it to come off his tail however, this is what was revealed afterwards. He is 1 year old and has shed many times but I've never seen this type of discoloration in him after a shed.

Thank u!! Im so glad to hear this! Still gonna take him to the vet as he's due for his 6 month check up. In the mean time, Thanks for the peace of mind

Beardie has weird discoloration on tail, back legs and beard. He just went through a patchy shed and we seem to be having issues with this one. Does this look like shed? Or maybe a Bacterial or fungal infection? The tail seems to have a very thick layer and it has white spots in it. Im guessing...

Update... looks like my lil guy is going to be ok!! He's shedding, eating and finally poo'd this morning. This is my first beardie so I get worried about every little thing with him. I'm amazed at how attached one can get to these sweet reptiles!! I want to thank y'all for the comments, great...

Just an update... my lil guy started shedding today. It's finally the flaky kind of shed and guess where? Yup in the area I was so worried about. Smh lol. Now I have 1 more problem. I was forced to feed him meal worms bc the pet store was sold out of crickets and my order from dubia hadn't...
