A characteristic of beardie anatomy that I don't really understand are the glands, or sacks that are on either side of their beards. I have noticed that one of Ikky's glands (or whatever) is larger than the other.

Is that normal?

Thanks

Hello,

Those are just part of their jowl or beard area, no problem. All dragons have them. A little bit of fat is stored on or around them, as well.

Ikky is brumating right now, I'm guessing these are the parts that would get thinned out while she diets?

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. 😔
