Hello:)
I’ve been worried about my beardie, Tito, all day. His beard has been a gray color almost like a stone color and he hasn’t eaten any of his greens and wouldn’t touch any of the crickets I tried to feed him. He has no stress marks on his tummy and is pretty light besides his beard. I’ve never seen it this color and google didn’t provide me with any answers. I’ll provide some pictures, he usually loves his greens and crickets so I’m just worried something’s wrong. Does anyone know what’s going on?

Looks like shed to me. How old is he? As the become adults they start shedding in patches instead of whole body.
I was thinking the same thing but I wasn’t sure because all the other times he shed he would still eat. I honestly have no clue on his age I rescued both my bearded dragons in December. But he has grown a lot since then (I included pictures of him when I first got him but it’s kinda hard to tell his size). I wanna say he’s no older than a year maybe.

Yeah somewhere around that age/size range is where they start having patchy sheds. Once it starts whole boby shed are rare from then on.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
