Smelly beardie

[Sp1ke]

So, Spike has this really bad habit of pooping as soon as we clean his cage and then laying in it. Of course we give him a bath and clean it up right away. But, how do you get that poopy smell off your dragon. From what I've read, you're not really supposed to use soap, so how do you get them clean when they REALLY need it? Thanks!

Little devils arent they?
Luckily Ruben poops in the bath now so I dont have this problem anymore, but when we first got him he would often schmere himself in poop because of his disability.
If he ever needed a reaally good clean I would use a warm wet Qtip or much better is a childs soft toothbrush which is good for getting out the little bits in between the scales.

What are you cleaning your tank out with?
If you are completely removing his scent he will continue to poop right after to "spred himself" around.
