Potential Tail Rot? (w/ Images).

[DefaultName]

Hi,

Now im wondering if he has tailrot because if you look at the images of his whole body, his upper body is clearly grey for shedding, where as his tail is black and has been for a while. I haven't seen if its been spreading but it is noticiable compared to the rest of his body. Also I think maybe this has been annoying him cause nothing in his vivarium nothing has changed at all in the past week and so all I can think of is that this is bothering him as his beard is jet black. I've have even tried bathing him and misting him more than normal to help with his shedding as has been recommended by several sites/forums, but nothing seems to be helping. Any advice or info. would be much appreciated.

AND - I'm convinced his tail is colder than the rest of his body when I touch it and im sure I read that tail rot causes blood circulation issues.

It isnt tailrot. You would know it if you had it.
Your dragon looks agrivated to be. when stressed about something or just pissed off their tails can turn dark just like the beards, only not as extreme.

There front legs too from what I have noticed. I seen mine with his beard out his tail turned a lil black as well as his front feet. That was when there was a female near him. :shock:

2 of my dragons have the same thing but theirs never goes away. I worry about it but I feel that if they just shed it it'll be back to norm color.
