The tip of his tail was necrotic (dead). They snipped it off ( :shock: ), only that very end part which actually had never grown any bone for some reason, and gave us some antibiotic injectables (oh how he hates them), and I am pleased to say that his coloring in the tail is already much better...

We are going to the vet today. Thanks everyone. I'll post what the vet says is going on so that if other's search this topic than can see what was causing it.

Yea I don't think I've ever seen the tip of his tail shed. I always sort of figured it happened when I wasn't looking because it's such a little patch. Ok, I'll get the poor guy to the vet ASAP. I hope he doesn't have to loose too much of his tail, that thing is his pride and joy he just loves...

My bearded dragon is 4.5 months old, and has always had a thinner section on the very tip of his tail, about half the length of a tip of a pen. I figured he got nibbled there as a baby, as he was a petsmart lizard and was kept with a lot of other hatchlings. The rest of his tail always looked...

Sirrush sleeps just like that! It's hilarious.

Thank you, that seems like good advice. It does occur to me that maybe the reason Brutus watches Sirrush like peanut-butter is because he is wondering if that is what he tastes like.

Oh thank goodness. I've had my beardie, Sirrush, for a few weeks now, and I was starting to get seriously concerned about his sleeping habits. I made him a nice comfy hammock with blankets, he has several hidey holes, and a soapstone that stays nice and warm at night, and yet... this is how he...

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who can't leave the lizard in the store. I also wanted one since I was a kid, planned on getting one from a breeder, but instead brought a lizard home from petsmart when I went to get my dog food. I hope that Rory is healthy and active. I'm a little concerned...

This is Sirrush This is how he sleeps.

Hello, I am a first-time bearded dragon owner (uh, I guess slave is the correct lingo for reasons becoming quickly apparent). While I have wanted a bearded dragon since I was 14 (10 years ago) and done extensive research, I thought it would be a good idea to join a community that can help sort...
