My beardie is five months old and I noticed after her recent shed that her nose ports were capped. I have read that this is very common and to take a wet Qtip and try to rub the shed off when I give her a bath.

Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Sometimes mine will get little skin bits that look like dried out skin boogers when she shedding right over her nostrils. I wrap her in a hand towel and pull them off with tweezers. She shakes and hates it but seems happier once they aren't blocking her nose!

These seem to be nose plugs? I looked online and they look like what she has. She just finished a shed yesterday and I was hoping they would go away along with the shed but it's still there.

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
