  • so cute at 18 sec

  • He's so pretty!!!!

    Did he try to get away when you got the thing out?

  • can he exdend his beard

  • @1234choloboy - Yes, he was able to puff out his beard.

  • I have a bearded dragon that is 10 years old and still going strong! They are great! I had a friend bring me a severely neglected beardie yesterday that has an abscess like in the video... except his is larger and a fistula was already open and wanting to drain. I removed a lot of semi liquid/solid infection and cleaned it up with betadine and put neosporine over the hole to keep it clean. Next step... probiotics.

  • @muttcowboy - Wish you the best of luck with the new beardie.

  • 7:53 he's happy

  • what a garbage ass song, pretty cool vid tho.

  • so yes always when something happens like that take him to the vet

  • @hcs626 - He was looked at by a professional... however something like this isnt cured by a ONE TIME vet visit. I had to take care of him after getting instructions by the person who seen him.

  • @UpstateNYPets i know i was just saying that so whoever would come to watch your vid they would know just saying

  • stop poping it bye you self take him to the vet!

  • Poor thing. I feel compassion for that poor beardie. I hope that never happens to my beardie

  • What it's that tho ? Like how dose that happen I want to do my very best to take care of my bearded dragon.

  • @thexKnightxKnight - Its an infection that started inside his skin that hardened up, which is what caused that thing to pop out.

  • he/she loooks alot like my beardie

  • That poor little guy but he looks like he felt SO much better when you popped out the Abscess, than the one he looked like he was going to shed soon looks like a little Beardie Burrito

  • fucking hate this "song"

  • How does that form?

  • @thenumber1bleachfan - In this case, it started with a little infection that started from getting pricked by the spikes on a cockroach leg. After time it just kept getting worse and worse until it was noticeable (with the bump forming), and at that time, needed to be lanced and drained.

  • so what are abscesses

  • nice to know a handsome one like him got healed up

  • 7:52

    "Bearded Dragon": Camera... Bad..

  • is he still living? if so, how is he? hes lovely.

  • @IamMeUareYou - He passed away a couple months later from what I believe was old age as he was a few years old when I got him, and I had him for over a year. I have a video dedicated to him, he died on Memorial Day 2010.

  • @UpstateNYPets aw, poor thing. :(

  • wow im sorry that looks very painfull

  • Gorgeous beardie! Screw all you eople bitching about the music u assholes.

  • OMFG... If I hear this song one more time I'm going to go postal. I can't ever hear this song again if I want to keep my sanity.

  • he looks like a bad boy

  • aw he cant puff out his beard

  • gross pics, glad hes better :)

  • It's great that you went through so much just to get him well again. Some horrible pet owners would just leave it until it got so serious there would be nothing to do about it. The world needs more people who take good care of their pets. ^^

  • do you know what caused it ?

  • what an amazing looking bearded dragon! i have on myself an he is such a lover. best of luck with recovery with her/him

  • that is a darling beardie! i have one myself and his name is Crackers. haha :D

  • @kentera2125 Awesome name! My beardie's name is Falkore. It means portector of the people.

  • wow thats a big blessing for him to recover! and what a beautiful beardie! i have one as well his name is Steve ^_^ good luck with your dragon! and im very happy the Abscess didnt come back

  • good job helping him takes alot of work!

  • good job ..i see u love ure dragon :D

  • you did an awesome job. poor little beardie. we have two and i couldn't imagine that happening to one of them. they are like our adoptive kids. i have made many rushes to the vet. lol

  • I couldn't live without my bearded dragon. He's not a pet, he's a part of the family.

    He's a german giant by the way.

  • hey i know this was a long time ago for you but i just wanted to say thaat, that beardie is toufge and has an owner that CARES! and i would love to know what the vet said?

  • @griffan456 - You want to know what the vet said as to what? How the procedure went? Why he died? Why he got the abscess? And thank you... I do care about my reptiles :)

  • @UpstateNYPets I realize this was over a year ago for you but I was curious about why the vet didn't recommend stitches after you were able to successfully evacuate the abscess. Did you have to keep him a vegetarian while he was healing to keep crickets or worms from bothering the wound? Granted, I figure you would have kept the quarters pristine now matter what but I'd be paranoid if a wound was left open on one of my dragons. I'm curious, not critical.

  • @RebelMuse - We didnt give him stitches because the wound wasnt bleeding or pussing. Without stitches we were able to use a Q-tip to clean the wound with betadine and antibiotics. With stitches, the cleaning inside the wound would not have been possible. His diet remained the same all throughout his ordeal. Worms, crickets, veggies, etc never bothered him. As you said, I kept his space very clean, and did not allow crickets to hang out and crawl all over him inside his tank. Thanks for viewing.

  • Fuck this song SO SO SO SO MUCH for plaguing me all over Youtube >:(

  • @redheaddavey - Fuck people like you who leave stupid ass comments on videos that mean a lot to people. If you don't like the damn song MUTE YOUR SPEAKERS or MOVE ON, you twit.

  • @UpstateNYPets Just my opinion, how about you go fuck yourself. I hate this song, I hate you, and I hate this lizard.

  • @redheaddavey - Congrats on showing all of YouTube what a fool you really are.

  • @UpstateNYPets Congrats on acting like a Captain-Save-A-Ho online. You've clearly impressed all these other Internet weirdos that are probably only here to watch the abscess get popped with your Online Heroism and snapwhit defenses of this poor reptile and this unbelievably annoying song. Bravo. I bow to your superior sense of Internet brotherhood.

  • @redheaddavey Now, as I said before, fuck off. Go away.

  • Good song, glad it made a full recovery, too bad it passed away later on. Great owner

  • You are such an awsome pet owner. Many people would have given the animal away and given up on the trouble of caring for them. My poor kittie escaped one time and gotten an abcess around his eye, im not sure what caused it. Anyways that kittie's abcessed was very bad. His eye was nearly swollen shut. I got him all cleaned up, and he is now a fat and happy kitty who loves sitting on my keyboard. 

  • @xthrowdownx06 - Thanks for the support. Glad to hear your kitty is okay :)

  • He looks spoiled rotten. Good job (;

  • Gorgeous beardie

  • That succccks

  • wth is that stuff

  • i'd love to see some pics after a few molts

  • This reminds me more of an infected cyst (formed over an ingrown scale/other foreign object that got wedged into his skin, possibly when he was younger) than an abscess. The difference is subtle - but in the case of a cyst the infection will return over and over until the effected area of flesh is removed. You're just lucky that the lancing site was large enough that trying to "empty" it happened to pop the cyst right out! My hubby had one on his rear end, and it took surgery to get rid of it!

  • mine has two bumps on the side of his face is it deadly

  • 7:53 beardie fonz says "eyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

  • wow im so sorry, but you did a good yob, is he ok now??

  • @issane288 - Unfortunately the beardie passed away a couple months later... However his death was not related to his abscess.

  • @UpstateNYPets aaaaa so sorry to hear that...did you get a new one..becose i see you are a true lover od reptiles and deserwe them...not lika so many people here on youtube...who only see them as toys especialy beardies, becose they are calm and not showing agreesinon even if you do something to them they dont like....so pople think they can do anything to them...so sad...if they try to do some of those things they film and put here to like cameleon he would byte their had of :) wish all luck

  • @issane288 - I do have a new one, actually I have 2 beardies now (yes I've been slacking on videos lately) and they are just as spoiled as the one before them :) I agree that many people don't deserve to keep reptiles, they think of them as toys and only like them because of the "coolness factor". Many are not cared for properly because of that.

  • my baby leopard gecko has a bump on the side of his jaw and i dont know what it is please help

  • You have a beautiful dragon. Is he a morph?

  • @MetaLNadia - No, he is a 'regular' beardie... and thanks.

  • Glad he has recovered :)

  • i dont need an expert. id wrather take care of my 20$ bearded dragon myself than paying 100$ for an 'expert' to do it for me

  • I didn't know reptiles could get abscesses.

  • Wow I'm glad he is ok now.

  • 3:07 You could hide your weed in there.

  • one loved beardie

  • awe ur beardie really loves u and you love him. love is real in all cases.

  • They don't normally get stuff like this, do they?

  • at 7:52 he looks like a smiling infant! So cute!

  • sorry for the litte guy i got 2 bearded dragon and one have lad 19 eggs

  • Dude seriously i hat tht song

  • I have a vet appointment in the morning to take care of an abscess on the face of one of my chinese water dragons. hopefully with some love and care he'll heal just as nicely. :]

  • @PhenoBarbitol13 - Good luck with the vet appointment. I'd appreciate it if you message me with the result.

  • Love this video !! Great job caring for the beardie! Sorry he is gone but he seemed like a happy little guy and that's all that matters! My beardie i have was rescued and he almost lost his eye I really wish I took videos and pictures because it is quite amazing! My guys eye works perfectly only has minor scaring now 2 years later!

  • He is so cute. I am glad he is better. You have taken some really great photos of him. In some of them it almost looks like he is smiling.

  • He's gorgeous and so calm for you and the camera.

  • did it hurt him at all? like when you pushed the thing out or the swelling

  • @TheBDArizona - It popped out so easy that I dont think it bothered him too much. He didn't flinch and sat their very patiently for me. As you can see, he even sat through it allowing me to take the pictures.

  • i hope your beardie is all better now, we your beardie in pain when you squeezed it out ?

  • @bob474100 - He may have felt some pain, but he sat there very still without flinching, and even sat there patiently while I took photos of the process.

  • ps sorry he passed...must have been hard for u ....where r u in upstate ny? we are just outside albany ny...would be great to know a caring and experienced beardie owner such as urself, btw the music was fine and was a godd distraction in a way to keep me focused on what was important and needed to be done, best of luck always...

  • @payitforwardmomma - I recently moved out of NY, but I was east of Syracuse, about 2 hours away from Albany. Thank you for the kind words, they are appreciated.

  • Thanks for sharing. Sometimes it seems scary but it is obvious how much you care and love him, btw so adorable he is...., and you did a great job and he was a trooper I am sure! When we had trouble we were able to find a Herp vet and got good advice from bd.org,so our beardie girl did well, tlc and cleanliness is a big part of their care, they are trlly awesome creatures ...u r an great and caring beardie owner! Thanks again... :0)

  • He's a good-looking fellow! I'm glad he made a full recovery. Abscesses suck.

  • hey dude nice video u helped save my bearded dragon from death so thanks i hope i o you one

  • poor little guy...

  • Lizards creep me out. but your lil man.. he is cute. Looking into his eyes was like looking into the eyes of a human.

  • I wanted to get my beardie a check up and I was wonderin If u had any idea where I should go for that, by the way that beardie was so adorable

  • @thetweenteam - Find a local reptile rescue or locally owned exotic pet store (not stores like petsmart, petco, etc)... and ask them to refer you to someone. You can also call around to your local vets and ask questions to find out if they are experienced with reptiles and ask how many come in there regularly.

  • LOL I just love all the heartless comments. People seriously need to grow up. So what the music sucks, turn the f*cking volume down you dumbasses! Better yet, DONT WATCH MY VIDEO. Supid f*cks.

  • @UpstateNYPets Is your Bearded Dragon albino? Anyway, its beautiful. Great job with caring for your pet:]

  • That bump was just like a pickle.. it gets pressed out and gets calm.. after a few days it comes back again D:

  • I really don't understand how people can be such ASSHOLES! This Beardie passed away and all you people can do is complain about the music and other petty shit like that? WOW! Grow up!

  • @UpstateNYPets, really sorry to hear that, unfortunatly the facelessness on here seems to cater to the moronic asshole!

    I've had a stroke and they bash me for spelling and grammer all the time! LOL you get used to these cowards!

    Great pictures, I really love these guys, they are native to my area, just yesterday I saw the resident one in my garden sitting in a bush watching me water great to have them around, have a resident Blue Tongue as well.

    All the best

  • @UpstateNYPets Its because the music sucks. Who cares about the lizard.

  • @UpstateNYPets Wait it died, i thought it healed just left a scar. I am really sorry for your lost. And yes people on youtube are rude, inconsidered, and just flat out mean.

  • @UpstateNYPets sad to hear that gorgeous dragon passed away, he was so pretty :'(

    how'd you know you could just pitch the abscess out?

  • @UpstateNYPets i know i feel bad support for my leapord gecko lizzy

  • Using the same song as 99% of the rest of uploaders ruins this video. Because of that alone, I can't bear to watch the entire clip even though it looks good!

  • @NAMkiller - When I made this video I didn't know how to add my own songs. There is a thing called the MUTE button too ya know.

  • @UpstateNYPets And there is a little thing called a help file.

  • @NAMkiller , So turn the sound off genius !

  • @NAMkiller Mute it moron....

  • Using the same song as 99% of the rest of uploaders ruins this video. Because of that alone, I can't bear to watch the entire clip even though it looks good!

  • I just wanna know how you let it even get to that point. I woulda drained that thing long before then.

  • @vtgamehendge - It went unnoticed for a little while... But when it started rapidly growing and getting bigger and bigger is when I noticed it and actually DID something about it. Can't say that for half of pet (reptile) owners out there.

  • @UpstateNYPets HA! I don't even know how my comment ended up on this vid. I was trying to post that comment on a video of some dude who had a huge abscess in his arm and they drained about a half gallon of fluid and puss. But I love bearded dragons. One of my friends had one when we were in college. His name was Cheeba.

  • i think you did a good job, at least you care about your pet.

  • shows how tuff breadies are

  • Awww he was a cute little guy. Looked like an infected tumor to me. At least to did your best to help him get well before he died.

  • That healed pretty beastly good thing bro

  • what causes this please respond im getting 1 soon and i need some tips (i subscribed and liked :) great vid)

  • I am so sorry this little guy passed away. I love to watch dermatology videos and figured that the reason for the fast re-growth was because there was a sac or something else. How old was he? He looked very happy, healthy and well taken care of. I do love it when they get mad and puff out like that. Too funny. Nature at it's best! Once again, I'm sorry for your loss.

  • aw that poor guy - good thing you got proper treatment for him. those pics of the abscess coming out are gruesome!

  • Beautiful beardie, sorry for your loss.

  • Looks like a small tumor.

  • Poor guy, he was very good about it. Is his coloring usual? they have one in my local pet store, the mascot she is more beige. Not the pretty white like yours.

  • @peepercoco

    Bearded dragons can be bread in loads of colors, theyre called "morphs", you should look it up theres some really cool ones

  • someone messed up on a shave

  • poor little guy. what a trooper, though!! looks great afterwards, though. good job!

    and to all the music haters...theres this great invention called a MUTE.... just saying. =]

  • wish it was a video instead of slideshow :(

  • Wow he is a cutie!! I enjoyed your video. Great work on your video diary, including the correct spelling of words. These days too many people can't spell. Congrats!! It's even a shame that I'm congratulating you on spelling our language.

  • sorry that he died but you did all you can. I a plod you for taking such good care of him.

  • aww. poor guy. was the abscess hard? it looks like it was a solid material.

  • aww. poor guy. was the abscess hard? it looks like it was a solid material.

  • poor beardy!!!!!!!

  • did you split the bump open

  • Did you take him to the vet?

  • thats not good

  • did it die and if it did im srry

  • @MrBrandon12233 - Yes he did die, but it was well after this was healed. Not sure what made him die, but I am thinking it was his age.

  • Poor dragon i hope mi n mi hubbys dragon dont get dat...

    Hope he get better

    N da song is funny lol it makes mi laugh

    But styll hope da dragon is better

  • That's nasty, but wait was that just something wrong with your beardie or can all get it,

    If so how can I prevent this from occurring??

  • @PvtRager - This wasn't something that my other reptiles could get. What we believe happened was when I fed him a hissing roach, one of the spikes from the leg penetrated his gums, and eventually led to this abscess. The infection slowly built up into that giant mass. The hole in the gum from the leg spike just kept collecting bacteria and infection was building while we knew nothing about it until the mass was formed. So you should be okay, no need to worry about this happening to your reptiles

  • @UpstateNYPets Oh that's good, I think I just saw your video saying it died.... :( I'm sorry to hear that...

  • i wanna kiss him on his head n tickle his belly....n paint his nails hot pink! xD =D

  • im so sick of dis fuckn song

  • @rider5ify - And I'm so sick of idiots like you, who have nothing good to say. If you don't like the shit on YT, get off it.... Simple.

  • @UpstateNYPets shut up stop whinnin everybody no dis song is over used

  • @rider5ify - Eat my ass and get a life, fool.

  • @UpstateNYPets your jus mad cuz its over used n everybody knows dat

  • @rider5ify Lol lackoriginalitymuch, and then just throw an insult back at someone who actually tries to give you advice pff

  • @rider5ify You are a fucking idiot period

  • @MultiAREE so im an idiot cuz i dont like the song......get a life

  • @UpstateNYPets ya u say it oh and do u have any other beardies because im srr this one died RIP little guy :(

  • @UpstateNYPets the song is played out get used 2 it

  • @rider5ify not that hard to turn of the sound on the clip ;P

  • is he crying at 2:51 it looks like he is.

  • @coolman934 - No the liquid is coming out of his mouth, when he struggles to get free he throws up a little or starts drooling.

  • 6:35 HAHA FUNNYEST REPTILE FACE EVER!!!!

  • why didnt u just get the vet to remove it? there the ones that should be doing stuff like that not you

  • @iluvcynder - It wasn't something that just could have been "removed" It was like having a big pimple or boil. It had to be LANCED and drained, which they did... it was up to me to keep it all clean and what not, under their supervision (which I had the whole time thank you very much). Hey, at least I'm not like half you scum bags out there who don't get ANY kind of vet or other expert care for their pets. If I did such a bad job, tell me... Why did it heal up and go away completely? Hmm?

  • looks like it hurts.......a lot......thats what happend to me after my surgery that i had last thursday my moulth was swollen.

  • Wow. This is one heck of a story. Thank God he is doing well now. You did a great job with him. He is very lucky to have you. He looks so happy now :) .

  • What a trooper!

  • why didnt the vet remove it?

  • How did they vet not see the cyst????

  • @gorp114 - The person I went to DID see the cyst... That's why it was taken care of. I went to a reptile rescue because a friend of mine runs it, I didnt see a vet.

  • What did he do when you popped that thing out? Did it hurt him or was he cool with it? I bet that had to have felt better. You did a great job. Totally AWESOME. The only thing better would have been a video of the popping!

  • @valleyjulie - He didn't do anything but sit there for me... He was very calm about the whole process. Even while squeezing it he didnt try to squirm or anything. Personally, I think animals can feel when you're trying to help them.

  • lol the abscess removed looks like an fly/cricket in a rock xD

  • Was it a cyst? I'm glad he is doing better!
