So my bearded dragon had a patch of scales on the top of his snout that looked darker than the rest. I asked around and was told it was probably retained shed and that it would come off.

Souther California Dr. Geoff Stein, who seems to be well-known by some on this forum, is now at VCA Foothill in Pasadena. Phone: 626-792-1187 2204 East Foothill Boulevard Pasadena, CA 91107 I had a great experience with him. Very knowledgeable, helpful, and patient. He's very kind to animals.
