Im a little concerned...I just talked to my beardie and he has a about 2 inches of my hair still attatch to his potty area so he didnt poop it out yet but the first parts just hanging out there...do you think it will come out with the next poop? anyone else ever had this happen?

I had this happen to my sulcata tortoise when she was just a hatchling. I just cut the hair close to the rear so that way they can't step on it and pull on it when they walk. Eventually it all came out. I wouldn't pull on it, just let it work itself out. Keep an eye on him though ;)

Exactly what drgnfly said, trim it if you have to. Don't tug on it and it will come out naturally :)
