I'm a little concerned about Spyro our new dragon, she is approx 5/ 6 months old, when we got her she had a little black mark at the base of the tail, that we thought noting of (ignorance on my part here) since learning about tail rot I am concerned, we have had Spyro for just on 6 weeks, the darkness is mostly on the top of the tail and not underneath, she has recently shed. You can see in the pics that is has not got any larger/spread,... Do you think this is tail rot? Would appreciate some advice. Below are the pics I mentioned.
Our set up is good, she eats and poos and sheds well. Temp is around 81 in the cool end and 105 under the basking spot, I have a ceramic heater on a puls star and used a infrared digital thermometer.
Hi, it doesn't look like tail rot but just a slight area of trauma. It should be fine but if it gets worse you might need to see about it. For now it's nothing to worry about.
It looks like a nip. Sometimes Beardies will bite eachothers tails. It happens when they’re young and is extremely common with large clutches. Nothing to worry about though!
