I didn't know this was possible, is the image real?

Yes!

I have scaleless bearded dragon. Naked reptiles are indeed real. Not always healthy, though.

Scaleless beardies are one of the most detrimental ones however, that one is very unfortunate for the animal

Absolutely! No one should ever go out looking for a scaleless beardie. Ever. I'm a former foster/rescue, and I was offered up one from a breeder who produced one by accident (they retired that pair immediately after). I accepted because I wanted to learn how to care for one in case I'd need the knowledge for future cases.

The amount of time & money I've spent on this idiot to keep him healthy & comfortable is ridiculous.

Love him to bits! But no one should ever get a scaleless beardie.
