Large numbers of bacilli, cocci and hyphal elements were diagnosed during the microscopic examination of the wound exudate. Microbiological analysis of a skin specimen revealed a moderate growth of <jats:italic>Enterococcus<\/jats:italic> sp. and <jats:italic>D.\u00a0agamarum<\/jats:italic>. The condition of the bearded dragon improved with combined therapy consisting of ceftiofur hydrochloride, voriconazole and meloxicam. However, 3\u00a0months later recrudescence was observed. This time, <jats:italic>Clostridium<\/jats:italic> sp. and <jats:italic>Chrysosporium<\/jats:italic> sp. were isolated in large numbers. The bearded dragon was euthanized.
