Potential Tail Rot …?

I don’t think this is tail rot, I feel like her tail has always been dark (I took her in from someone who had her previously) I was informed that she had an injury on her tail when she was younger and that’s why it was bent. But I’m still worried eek. :(

I feel like I might just be too worried since I’m a new beardie owner, but she hasn’t had any new trauma to her tail as far as I’m aware. Her face/ head is currently shedding right now if that provides any extra info.

Thank you !

Also ignore the kale she scattered it around her cage after I fed her it this morning 😭

Oh this is little Harry again. :) That's usually just shed coming on but if you're worried you can use a 1 part betadine to 10 parts warm water to soak the tail for 5-10 minutes. Put the mixture in a small jar and dangle the tail in while you hold him. It's probably not necessary but it will get him used to it in case it ever does develop a problem.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
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
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
