Her tail is going dark, it was like this when I got her and it's slowly crawling upwards on her tail. I've tried soaking her in a bath, putting oils on it and using a toothbrush to rub off any stuck sheds that may be causing it but nothing worked. Please help.

I don't see any tail damage in those photos. It looks like a natural darkening as you move toward the tip of the tail which is common. The end of the tail looks a bit grayer than the rest of her body so there may be a tail shed coming on soon. I don't see anything that would cause me concern.

Okay Thankyou guys so much. First bearded dragon so it's always scary when you look on the Internet and all these things come up about it.

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
