At what point should I be worried about this shed?

Darwin's tail hasn't shed in the last month, while the rest of his body has shed twice. It's gotten that milky, clouded look for a while now, but is just not shedding. I've tried daily baths, rubbing his tail,the cocoa butter, the toothbrush in the bath, and bought Retpi Shedding Aid and have been spraying him with it for 3 days now. I might be jumping the gun on the shedding aid, but it doesn't look to be making any difference.

I know his tail still has feeling in it, because I (may or may not have...) pinched the end of his tail and he twitched it away from me and GLARED. He was very unhappy about it, but I was glad that his circulation was continuing throughout his tail. Any other tricks I could try? I'm about to lose it and take some sandpaper to his tail (kidding!) to help him. He's been grumpy lately, which I thought was a sign he was getting ready to shed it, but nothing yet :(.

Tails are usually very stubborn when shedding.

Can you post some pictures?

How old is your dragon, and its size.

It was taken last week but hasn't change since. Any ideas?

No clue about age, I've estimated about 5 months. He's 12" measured 2 days ago. Has the weirdest Buddha belly after he eats. He's a very good eater, and ate about 8 1/2" dubias this evening.

Dragon looks fine.
The shed will happen when it happens.

Oh...you mean I won't get to sandpaper my dragon's tail? Bummer... :D Thanks for the reassurance! I think I just needed to hear it from the experts!

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
