Hi Alexis.
What type of substrate is your beardie on? Would it happen to be calci-sand?
If not, would he happen to be getting ready to shed? Sometimes their skin would turn pinkish before changing to white.

Would you be able to post a photo of his feet, so we could better diagnose what may be wrong with him?

Even in the strangest sleeping positions shouldn't turn his feet red or pink, or any color for that matter. If it is happening because of the way he sleeps, there may be a circulatory issue going on.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
