tail rot?

[sarahdillon123]

Hello! My beardie is a year and half years old and his tail has always looked this way. He never shows any signs of discomfort or bad health. Do you think this is tail rot?

If it's always looked like that, it's likely not tail rot. Sometimes my beardie's tail becomes darker depending on her stress levels. However, I worry that the shape of your lizards tail could be from MBD. What light do you use?

I agree with Vic and Mars… it looks like either a broken tail or a deformity due to MBD.

I use the non coiled uva/uvb lights. Are those the right ones?
