there have been other instances (other than this shed) where my beardies head grows very very pale, looks like he’s just about to shed, and then the pale shed never falls off, and it just fades away. is this normal? he is completely fine after it has faded away i was just confused.

That happened to Reptars tail not too long ago, it faded away so I thought she must have shed it while I was gone from my house for the day however it lightened again after a couple days and began to shed after I put some reptished help stuff from the pet store on it. Although I would still get a second opinion from a more experienced owner on here.

That has never happened with me before, but beardies do tend to eat their shed to reabsorb the nutrients and shed skin is a good source of calcium for them. So maybe your beardie did shed and ended up eating it when you weren’t around.
