Hi all.
I recently(9 days ago) bought a bearded dragon. I am not sure how old it is, but it was little more than 10cm when I bought it. On Monday I noticed that it was shedding on it's tail. I bathed it in warm water and the skin fell right off. Tuesday, the same happened with the torso, almost like a jacket coming off. But since that happened, his throat/stomach is very dark almost all of the time, exept when he sleeps or sometimes when I handle him. Also the tail is very light and looks exactly like it was about to shed, only problem : I just had!. The little guy seems fine in all other aspects. He is quite lively and damn fast LOL! Has a healthy appetite. Defecates once a day(firm brown with white urate). And has already grown to above 12cm.
I have noticed patches in his face and on his legs. Could it be stress from shedding? He wasn't even this stressed when I bought him home. Should I be worried?
