Yellow Fungus?? New Rescue

[JLynn87]

Hello everyone, I just picked this girl up a few hours ago and brought her back to my place and put her straight in the bath and she was covered in poop, stuck shed and I’m not sure what else it was. I noticed that she has yellow on her face, beard, a little bit on the neck and arms. I’ve not seen yellow fungus before so I’m not sure if this is just her coloring or if it is concerning. I have to wait till Monday to make a vet appointment.
What are your thoughts?

On another note, her nails are deformed, they are growing out in weird angles.

Her nails need to be clipped -- look on youtube for bearded dragon nail clipping -- the yellow is her coloring

Thank you! Glad it is nothing of concern, I’ve heard sad stories about yellow fungus.

I agree, definitely natural coloring. I've owned yellow dragons before and sometimes the entire body is yellow , other ones can just have it on the face, beard, around the eyes, etc.

Nice that you're taking care of her, looks alert and in reasonably good condition. BTW, are you sure it's a female ?

I have not checked myself, but I will soon. She was not handled much so not only does she have a new environment, but she now has a mama who loves handling her babies. The lady who fostered her said she laid eggs about two months ago. I now have three bearded dragons and they are all slightly different colored so I don’t have to worry about getting them confused I guess LOL.
