I have was feeding my beardy when I notice this black quite hard lump on her head. She is acting and feeding fine. Nothing out of the ordinary. It doesnt seem to hurt her when I touch it. I was going to see if it gets worse or goes over the next few days before I think about taking her to the vet. If anyone has any info on what ir could be, any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
Hard to tell but might be a tick perhaps …. does your dragon get to go outside in the yard , might have picked up a tick from a plant or some long grass .
Did you try to wipe it off with a wet paper towel ? It could just be a bit of food or even poo that got flung like these beardies do when charging around the tank. Looks like it'll come right off. If it is a cricket bite, it may have formed a small scab of blood and should also come off in a warm bath.
