I have a two month bd that is 9 inches almost ten now and he has stress so he is always brown inside his tank but when i take him outside he turns yellow with irangeso itryd to make his basking spot hotter but he still stays brown i do have uvb uva light and i dont know what to do he does have thos black dots under his stomach and beard so can some one plz tell me how to make him go back to his regular color

P.S i have a heat mat that is located in the hot side of the tank to help rise the temperature
Thanks for your help and coments

well how big is his tank, whats the temp in the backing spot, whats the temp in the cool side,has he had any water bath, or sprayed on his greens or on him and is there any othere dragons in there with him or where he can see them. tell em more about that then i will know more about his conditions

well from the thermometer it says 90 degress and the cool side is 80 degrees and no i havent given him a bath in a while but he is beign house with a female dragon but it really shount affect him because he has always been house with a nother dragon and whas fine is just reasently he became stressed and he lives in a 55 gallon fish tank he is shedding his tail and he does eat vegies with dragon dust

could be the other female is she alot bigger then him, this will efect him other then that he might just be going threw a spell with his shedding

like the other poster said could be the other dragon thats stressing him out. also the hot basking spot needs to be 105-115. 90 is too low. the cooler side should be about 75-80. get rid of the heat mat or UTH, i hate these for beardeds, as do most people. just use a normal house bulb or heat bulb in a fixture from above.

Hi
raise youre temp to 110-115 .
r turn in a higer watt.
r make a branch r rock towards the heatspot and then measure it with a digital termometer with a extra probe .
you stil lucky they r not impacted !!!
that can hapend with a low baskingtemp.
bye

if it is older than 6 months you should replace it. they need replaced every 6 months.
