I recently took in a bearded dragon from a family member that was going to get rid of him. I figured he would just be another reptile in the mass of unwanted ones on craigslist so he would probably be better off with me. I know a bit about bearded dragons from living around one a few years ago but I am re-educating myself on everything now that I am a full-time caretaker of my little buddy. I've been away at school though and his care hasn't really been up to me. Now that I'm back he is in shed and it looks like he might have some stuck shed on his tail. I'm super worried that it is tail rot and I don't know what to do. I've been giving him baths in warm water frequently to try and help him out.
In the photo you can see the dark middle part of his tail which is the normal color and the tip and the base I think are gray-ish as he is about to shed it. I really need any advice on what to do. Help!
