Beardie has a raised white patch around the shoulder area behind her head.
It doesn't seem painful or hasn't changed her eating habits.
What is the cause of the patch?

1If in doubt, go see a vet instead of asking strangers on the internet. Most animals hide signs of pain and discomfort as long as possible (especially reptiles), because any sign of weakness means they end up as a snack to the next predator. Doesn't mean they don't feel the discomfort / pain, though. A vet can assess her overall health, maybe find problems you haven't even noticed yet, and give you advice on how to change her diet or habitat to keep her healthy. – Elmy May 28 '19 at 06:16
