My bearded dragon's head is currently in shed and I notticed that one of her nostrils is covered. Is there a way I can open it or soak it in something to speed up the process?

Hello,

Sure, you can always bathe her to help soften up the area if the nostril is clogged. If it looks like it is lifting & ready to shed, you can always use a q-tip to gently rub the nostril to see if it lifts. If it isn't ready, don't pull on the nose plug because it could damage the internal nasal membrane & cause some pain.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
