my dragon has a strong weird smell

His tank doesn't smell but he does. His odor is very strong though. He smells almost like he is burning. Like if you burn food, that is what he smells like. What is wrong?

That's very odd. Are there any areas on his body that look concerning? Could he have gotten burned? Have you tried giving him a bath to see if it helps with the odor?

I looked all over his body. Nothing abnormal. I don't think he would have gotten burned, he moves around his tank a lot, he barely sits still.

Well, you could pick up some Betadine and pour enough in his bath so that it looks like weak tea & see if that helps. Be sure to offer him a drink first so that he doesn't drink any of the Betadine water though.

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?
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.
