Lately, I have noticed that my bearded dragon's poop hasn't been looking quite normal. It was sort of undigested and unformed, and I also have seen drops of blood in it the past couple of times. Tonight, I went to feed her and she did not want to eat and had a significant black beard, so I put...

So about two weeks ago I noticed that one of my gecko's toes was turning brown, which I know is not super uncommon because of stuck shed or injuries while shedding. So fast forward to now, and the tip of that toe has fallen off. He shed yesterday and lost the tip during the shedding process. I...
