Small bent part of tail?

Hi, I've had my dragon, Thunderbolt (my daughter named him ) for about 2 months and he's always had a little bent part in his tail. Is that normal or something I need to take him to a vet for? It feels soft like the rest of his tail and the scales look the same, just some are slightly turned weird. I added pictures of his tail and some of him, because he's cute . To me, it doesn't seem like there's anything seriously wrong with it, but I don't want to make the mistake of not taking him in. He's also about 3.5-4 months old. I'm not sure if that matters any. Thanks!

Nothing to worry about 2 of my dragons have a bend in their tail, and they are all 7 yrs old, I've had them since they were conceived, watched them all hatch (no, I'm not a breeder)and 2 just came out that way. I personally think it makes them unique. So, no worries my fellow beardie friend

Just keep an eye on it, if the tip starts to look darker or like it's drying up, there could be a problem. My Dexter has a small bend at the very tip of her tail and my Luci has a big bend in his, doesn't bother either of them.

Yep just keep an eye on it for any changes.. My female had a kink in her tail when I got her likely due to it getting stuck under something.. It eventually fell off.
