Hello! I have a concern about my dragon, biscuits. He is a male, about 5 months old and I’ve had him since the 23rd I believe. I hung out with him in the reptile shop i got him from a couple of times but when i look him home, I noticed something that looked like a stuck shed and researched and but people said the end might drop off, but other than that he would be fine. Today when I got back and fed him his greens I noticed something which looked like blood on it. I am looking for anyone to help me know if he will loose the end, if he will be okay, should I be worried. I’ll leave a photo, it is a bit blurry since its small but hopefully you can see! (wait i dont know how to send pictures, I’m on my phone)

( this was a picture from a couple hours ago but now the end is very askew and at an angle)

Hit the menu option in the top left, scroll down to “Fun and new stuff” and there will be a user image uploaded. Click on that and follow the instructions. When uploading to your post it will be the XIMG option. Will show up as letters and numbers but when you post your picture will show up...has to be preuploaded from the image uploaded though! :)

He will most likely lose the tip. It might just fall off and you won’t have any issues or it can develop into tail rot and cause other issues for him. Looks like he was nipped by something. Best thing to do would be a vet visit as they can remove it for you and give you stuff to prevent infection. If you wait for it to fall of there is a greater risk of infection.

Okay thank you, I really appreciate it! He was in a tank with another dragon for a while when he was at the reptile store so maybe that was it. Thank you again

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
