I see shed around the eye looks like its peeling off- lethargic? He looks disgruntled- what are his surface basking temps and how are you taking them? Digital probe or a stick on gauge? UVB? Are you using a coil or a long tube fixture?
He (?) has a uvb light and a stick on temperature gauge the hot side of his tank is usually between 80-90 degrees. I gave him some water and shredded carrot thinking he might be dehydrated. We just got him 2 weeks ago so we’ve never seen a shed. I’m reassured that you don’t think it’s yellow fungus.
He has a tube fixture and his basking log feels quite warm to the touch despite the lower temp readings on the wall thermometer. Thank you for your help Sadie. I’m new to this and we want to take good care of our dragon.
Ok so stick ons are good for ambient temps but not surface basking temp you need to get a digital probe thermometer Zoo Med makes them found at Pet Smart / Petco etc - 105-110 -- ambient around 100 - this starts digestion he needs 2-3 hrs of basking time before lights out -- tube fixture for UVB what brand and bulb please - the screen on the tank is going to determine placement and distance - this needs to be on par for him to thrive
