Hello, I have a bearded dragon. His name is drago. He is 19 months old and I have had him for 18 months. He recently got this bump on his tail and I haven’t gotten around to taking him to the vet. Does anyone have any advice on what it may be or things I can do to keep him healthy until I can take him to the vet?
I don’t leave crickets or anything that would bite him in the cage. When I first got him though he did get bitten by another bearded dragon on the tail. He had tail rot but I took him to the vet and he took some antibiotics and was perfectly fine for months until now.
How is your dragon's tail looking?
I agree with AHBD, it appears to be either a cyst or an abscess which is an infection. Could a
cricket have bitten him there? Is it hard or soft to the touch?
