Hello guys, my bearded dragon developed a growth on his head two months ago in which I took him to the vet on July 7th, the results came back a week later and the CT Scan came out inconclusive on whether it was either a abcess, hematoma, or a aneurysm. The first two weeks the mass grew in size and just a week and half ago it was turning red and looked like it was going to burst. However, now it is turning darker color and hasn't seemed to grow anymore.

Please post a pic of the dragons head -- what kind of UVB are you using coil or long tube fixture? Surface basking temps are what and how are you taking them? Analogs are inaccurate

Hello,

Do you have any pictures you could post of his head?
How is he doing today?
What you could do if there is still an area which is like an
abscess, etc, you can use some raw unpasteurized honey
or silver gel or cream on it to see if it helps out for the area.

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
