Shedding?

[jezwolf175]

Hi. I'm a new beardie owner and I think my beardie is shedding...I just wanted to confirm it though. um He doesn't eat as much as when he first came home. He's rubbing his head on the rock and branch. the thing is I just dont see the greying of the old skin...his back colors look a little dull but i'm not really sure. oh and he eye bulges! :shock: anyway is this normal? :shock:

Supplies:
Powersun 100w MVB it is 12-13 inchess away from him on his basking rock (until my reptisun gets here)
40 gallon tank
repticarpet
digital probe thermometers. temps are 105-110 basking rock, 80-85 cool side 90-95 warmside

If you're worried, give him a bath, but it sounds like he's shedding. Eye bulging is normal, I think its to help them get skin off their eyes. I'm not positive but the grey skin only shows when it is about to come off.

Hope this helped. Peter
