My beardy is 1 year and 7 months old, she shed a lot when she was young probably at 1-6 months old was when she shed the most. She hasn’t shed her full body from anywhere from 8-12 months can’t remember exactly but I know it’s been about that and just wondering if that’s normal? It just seems like a long time to not shed her full body. She has shed her tail and feet multiple times over and over again but hasn’t shed her body in probably closer to 12 months? Just seem odd?

totally normal. as they get older, the shed gets more patchy, like you're describing, and takes longer to happen. Sir Henry just shed part of his face. his last shed was his back about a year ago. he's just about 3.

I agree with those who posted before me. I checked my notes and thought the same about Rocky and boom, this morning he's miserable!!!!!! There was a small piece of shed under his eye two days ago but today he hasn't asked to get out and he's in total misery. It's just the start so here we go!!!
Before you know it, you'll be singing the same song. The good news, our beardies will be continuing to grow heathy and strong.

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
The head tilt tho! Aaaahhh
