My beardie Tanuki has had shed stuck on the side of his face/in his ear for about a month now. I’ve kept spraying it but part of it turned grey and now I’m really worried. I have absolutely no idea what to think/do.
Another thing is that he sheds he’s chin about every other week even though he’s a year and a half old. Any ideas what’s wrong??

Here’s the side of his face with the shed issue

Sometimes beard sheds can be stubborn and really stick to the old scales for a long time. That looks like what's going on for most of the beard (and looks normal). I don't like the look of the peaks of some of his larger scales on the right side. It looks scabby which can indicate a problem. You might want to have a vet check that out if it doesn't look clear after the area sheds.

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
