[QUOTE="Claudiusx, post: 1996575, member: 31715"] Hello there, Yes that is what is typically referred to as stress marks. Much more common in babies. Sometimes can mean nothing, but it's a good reminder to make sure your husbandry is up to par. It's one of the few ways your dragon has of telling you that something might not be right :) I noticed the stick on dial thermometers in the back. Those are extremely inaccurate and have no way of telling you the most important temperature, the basking SURFACE temperature. Temperature is one of the most important parts of a dragons health, so if you don't already, make sure you get a digital thermometer with probe end. This allows you to put the probe on the basking surface to measure the surface where your dragon is actually basking. Luckily, these thermometers are quite cheap, usually as cheap if not sometimes cheaper than the dial thermometers. Secondly, making sure you have a proper UVB setup is crucial to their health. If you tell us what UVB bulb you have, we can let you know if it's a suitable bulb, and if it is positioned properly. And lastly, making sure his diet is adequate. Once again though, if you don't have your temperatures right, the best diet in the world will do nothing. Spending time here asking questions and reading through threads of people who have already asked these questions is a good use of time for a new beardie owner, and helps ensure that you and your new buddy have a long happy life together :) -Brandon [/QUOTE]
