I have a year old bearded dragon named Luci. Her tail has been slowly darkening in color, but it is not turning black. I have read so many different articles and I am not sure what to think!! She is eating and acting just fine. She has not shed in quite awhile. I am worried about tail rot and wondered if there is any other signs.

I have read that no variety in diet can cause tail rot. She will ONLY eat mustard greens, Bok Choy, crickets, worms, and occasionally some different fruit. She is so picky! I have tried everything!

She has very clean conditions with the appropriate heat and lighting. She does get baths during the week. Luci is a class pet and I really don't want anything to happen to her! She is so loved by the kids. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi there, It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with Lucis tail or her diet. :) And no, diet has zero to do with a tail developing rot. A darkening tail can be pr-shed or can just be mood. Can you post a few pics of her, her tail and also of her tank with lights ? Here's how :

I don't think it's tail rot but keep an eye on it , if it shrivels up at the end it may be turning in to an infection.

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. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
