Hi my beardie about 4-5 months is shedding on his back , head , tummy , and his beard. Since earlier he's puffing his beard out , opening his mouth and kind of pulling his head towards his body is that normal or is he choking??

The puffing the beard out opening the mouth is stretching- common for shedding - I am not sure what you mean about the pulling his head towards his body tho -- can you post a pic of him please

Please spray him w / some water take a soft baby toothbrush and gently brush him -- it looks like hes trying to get the loose shed off - does he have some decor pieces in the tank to rub against to get the loose stuff off?

Yeha he has a a temple thing that’s hard and he has a hidy hole that he’s been rubbing against. I know your not supposed to pull off the skin but is there anyway i can help him?

The spraying will loosen the shed and the tooth brush will get the loose stuff off -- some like it cuz it scratches them

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
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 💔
