[QUOTE="DumplingTheDragon, post: 2016738, member: 117600"] I've been really worried about my beardie recently. He has some really weird scales that look shriveled up and if something touches them it causes him pain. Especially on his tail, if something touches it he wags his tail around and kicks with his leg. His birthday is in March(we're assuming) and he'll be a year old. I'm a new dragon owner but I made sure to do tons of research before buying him, and I still continue to do research. I'm just terrified theres something wrong or I'm doing something wrong. I'll attach some photos of the scales. He has a vet visit coming up in March as well so hopefully the vet will be able to tell me some things as well. I'm just very paranoid and I wanna see if I can get some answers. Info: Tank size: it's a 65-70 gallon tank Heating: He has two 75 watt lightbulbs and one of them has the reflecting lamp. Substrate: It's the calcium sand you can get at Petco. I tried using the carpet but for whatever reason he would refuse to come off of his hammock. he didn't like the carpeting. Night light: he has a 100 watt black lightbulb for nighttime heating. Since its winter and I live in an old farmhouse, it's hard to keep his tank as warm as it should be. I make sure to let him cuddle with me under the blanket so he can get heat from me and he also ADORES my heating pad so he'll sit on that for awhile. He gets plenty of sunlight because I set up a hammock in the window for him and he has a bridge he can use. it's connected to my bed so he can just hop off and go to the window whenever he wants while he's sitting with me. I let him run around for awhile so he can get exercise(with supervision of course) . Food: he used to eat mostly crickets but lately he's gotten sick of them. He's been eating mostly roaches lately and he'll occasionally eat some raspberries, strawberries, and/or blueberries. I don't feed them to him too often, they're mostly just treats. I make sure to cover the roaches in calcium(same with the crickets). Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated !! [/QUOTE]
