There are a couple of easy ways to do this. If she doesn't mind being held, you can use a wet q-tip to gently remove it. If she gets upset when held, then you can let her walk around in a pan of warm, shallow water for a bit, which should loosen the shed. :D

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
