Does anyone know what this yellow like spot is? On my daughter bearded dragon it right at the tip of her mouth. My daughter is concerned there is something wrong. It looks kind of like wax almost the scales seem a little thicker in this spot.
Is she glass surfing a lot? What are you using for a uvb coil or tube? How is her appetite? She looks thin! Basking temps and uvb are extremely important- basking temps should be taken w/ a digital probe thermometer- and they should be surface temps - no stick ons they are inaccurateDoes anyone know what this yellow like spot is?

We always go over uvb and basking temps since that is what prompts behavior issues - I see the digital thermometer in the tank are you using this for temps for basking ? If so it's only giving ambient and not actual surface basking temps-- your uvb is a long tube fixture what brand and does the fixture have a reflector in it? If it doesn't please get one also the tubes T 5 or T 8 have certain distance requirements- also your basking bulb looks like a yellowish color to itshe eats good she don’t glass surf and she’s in a about a 90 gallon her Lights and everything are good she’s only about 5 months old.

The bulb is white it’s color looks off in the picture not sure why. As for the brand the heat light is zoo something you get at pest smart. As the UV bulb I honestly not sure. And yes she has 3 temperature gages in her cage 1 on each side and 1 in the middleWe always go over uvb and basking temps since that is what prompts behavior issues - I see the digital thermometer in the tank are you using this for temps for basking ?

The digital in thermometers do they have a probe on them? The digital will only give ambient- please look on the uvb bulb it will tell you brand and look for T 8 or T 5--- this is crucial for distanceThe bulb is white it’s color looks off in the picture not sure why.

This is the information on her UV bulb sorry for the delay I had my 3yr old in the hospital with Covid.
It’s about 6mo old it’s in her tankOh dear hope she is better-- your T 8 is how old? Is it in the tank or top of screen?
Ok please change the bulb they expire in 6 months I recommend 5-- also the basking distance should be 6-8 inches directly above the basking decorIt’s about 6mo old it’s in her tank
Ok thank you I’ll get a new one this weekend.Ok please change the bulb they expire in 6 months I recommend 5-- also the basking distance should be 6-8 inches directly above the basking decor
Thank you so much!It just looks like stuck shed to me! No need for concern, she’ll probably shed it off in a week, and if she doesn’t do a 1-2 lukewarm baths with her, gently scrub it with a toothbrush, and afterwards maybe put some coconut oil on the bit of shed. That should help get it off ^^
No problem! ^^Thank you so much!
