Hello,

My beardie Fred has a clogged nose for a little while now and am wondering what might be causing it. I've read online issues with shed getting stuck but he hasn't shed in a while so I dont think its thats. I'm mostly concerned about a potential respiratory infection. I will take him to the vet but I figured I would ask here as well because I'm not confident with the vets in my area (No strictly herp vets)

He actually just started to shed yesterday in the area but the clogged nose has been there for a few weeks. Thanks for the input!

Nose plugs can sometimes take quite a while to come free. Be patient, it isn't harmful. It will eventually come loose and a mushroom shaped plug of skin will break free from in the nose.

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!
