Possible Yellow Fungus

[TrebleClef]

I am concerned that my beardie may have yellow fungus. I first noticed this yesterday after I got home from work when I gave my beardie her bath. The picture below is not a picture of my beardie, but it does look almost exactly they way mine looks and it is in the same area (around the vent) that this one is in. I haven't had a chance to take a picture of mine yet, but I will try to do so after I get home from work today. Can someone please take a look at this picture and let me know whether you think this is yellow fungus? Also, is yellow fungus contagious to other beardie's? I ask because at this time I have another beardie in the same tank as this one (both are females). I don't want them to both end up with it if that is what this is. Help!

Hi there.....that pic shows possible/probable Y;F., but you want to be sure on your dragon that it's not just a patch of skin that hasn't shed. To be proactive you can get some Lamisil antifungal cream and put it on that area. If it IS only shed, it will come off soon enough with the moisture from the Lamisil cream.

And yes, it is highly contagious. I hope it's just shed or if it's Y.F you might catch it early and eliminate it.

I guess I should add that he is shedding right now a little on his back and also a little bit in the vent and leg area...so I guess it is possible that this is just from him shedding. I was just concerned because I've never seen it look yellow in that area before. I'll just wait a bit more and see how it goes and I'll also purchase some Lamisil to try out.
