Hello, after lots of soaking one of Leos impacted femoral pores have come out in the bath this morning after gently rubbing with a tooth brush and putting coconut oil on.
I’m worried about it becoming infected now.
What are the chances it will become infected and is there anything I can do to prevent the infection?
Thank you!!!
Some before & after pics for reference

Use some raw unfiltered honey on it- that will kill the infection - dab it on if you haft to use it and make sure there are no crickets in the tank --

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
