Bearded dragons peal their skin. Just like snakes do. Its normal. JUst don’t pull it off urself. Let it come off naturally. Let him take a bath to soak the skin. It will help the peeling process.

Hey,

The picture is a bit blurry to see what the skin is doing. So you say, it isn’t shedding? Can you take a cleared picture?

good, then he DEFINATELY needs a vet visit if it is not shedding!!

Put some triple antibiotic ointment on it for the meantime (neosporin w/o pain killers)

I agree, but I would do the neosoring cream and not the ointment. The ointment will seal the skin and it could get infected. It contains too much oils.
