I got my female bearded dragon about 2 years ago, and her tail tip looked weird when i got her. I was told its nothing serious by the vendor, but now I think that it might be tail rot. Here are a few images: (copy into browser)
HOWEVER, the weird thing is the following: I posted these images in a discord and they told me it might be tail got, so i took a nail scissor and poked (dont worry, i did not pierce her scales) her tail tip, and she squirmed and moved the tail away. Does this mean it is not tail rot, and that the tail is just bent weirdly? Is it possible for a bearded Dragon to have feeling in nectrotic flesh?
Hi there, it could be but not definitely. Is this the way it's been since you got her you say ? If so then it's just a kink from previously being bent somehow. I had a female with a bent tail years ago, it never
was more than that. Sometimes they do get a bend in them but if the end shrivels up completely then it is tail rot.
