So I just noticed this red dot on my dragon's beard this morning and wasn't sure if I should be as concerned as I am. I tried wiping it off, but it didn't do anything. Unsure if it's a scratch or something more serious, but he hasn't been acting off at all so far. It doesn't bother him when I touch it either.
ok so not sure what that is -- someone else on the forum might know -- I was going to ask maybe food but since you tried to wash it off and it didnt wash off it might be something he poked himself on - ??

Yeah, I thought it looked like a little poke too though I'm not sure how or when that would've occurred. I know I have a tendency to panic over nothing when it comes to him, but I figured I'd see what others thought to see if a vet appointment is necessary. I appreciate your response!
Hi there, it could be a spot of bug guts [ a common source of funny spots on or around the mouth ] You could put a dab of hydrogen peroxide on it using a piece of paper towel or small rag just in case it's a mite. Be careful your beardie doesn't think the rag is something to eat though like my guy does with anything I put near his face.
