Stuck shed?

[cameronwagrs]

Hello, so I recently got this bearded dragon. He’s about 2 months old and recently he started to shed. I am very new to this but I don’t I am not sure if this stuck shed or just it needs to time come off. He has it on his body to the end of his tail and on his front 2 feet. Please help!

Yes that is shed and its not stuck it will get real grey or white and then start to come off -- you can mist him w/ a spray bottle to help when he gets really itchy and it starts come off --- if your using stick ons for temps they are terribly inaccurate --- you said you just got him --- can you please tell us what kind of lighting your using for your tank --- UVB brand and bulb please - if you can post pics of the tank and lighting

Oh okay. I have a temperature gun now and it usually sits at about 100-105. My uvb light is the ReptiSun 10.0. Here is a picture of my tank.

Yep ok so where does he sit under the UVB ? How is that going for you w/ the tree so high ?

There’s another branch that limbs out from where he is and there also a rock he can sit on top for that too. Is that alright?

 

[KarrieRee]

Don't see him or the rock how far is the rock from the UVB- as long as he is w/ in 6-8 inches he should be good--

The rock is a lot closer to the UVB within 6 maybe less.

Ok well he will sit where he likes it best- shedding is good-- you know he's growing

Yeah, that’s very good. Thank you!

Looks like a perfectly normal shed to me. It does sometimes take a few days to come off. If you want to help it along, you can give him a soak in warm water - but don't fret. You'll get used to what normal shedding looks like soon... you'll see it plenty in a growing dragon!
