If you want to see her true color, maybe keep her off of any colored sand? If she's on orange sand, she'll be dyed orange. Since you've decided to go with sand, maybe stick to un-dyed sand? I'm actually asking this, not trying to be smart.
She looks better. I don't think the enclosure is too small for one bearded Dragon. But it looks like you're housing both of your dragons together. I'm not sure if that's a good idea since you just received her and don't know what sort of parasites or other illnesses it may have. Other than that though, you seem to be taking pretty good care of her. She will be very happy with you!

ya i was worried about the parasites but they both were dewormed and both had a mite bath. the whole enclosure gets treated for parasites. and im monitoring them daily. soo far so good
I was wondering seeing there has not been any other post regarding vet visit, have you taken it to the vet
to ensure the color is natural vs a history of stress?
Nevermind, I missed the updates somehow. Got it. Hope all is well
I am not trying to alarm you, because this could be a rare and natural color variation...but the inside of her mouth is yellow as is the area around her eyes. Along with the sunken fat pads these could be symptoms of liver problems.

Is your other beardie a male or female? It really would be safer & healthier for the new beardie to be in her own tank. The stress of her being housed with another beardie especially in her weakened state with no fat pads & dehydration. Stress can actually cause their coccidia level to get too high which isn't good either. Do you have another tank?
If the other beardie is a male, he could breed her in a split second and she certainly isn't in any shape to be gravid.
