First Shed

[MangoFeet3]

Hey everybody, this is my first time that my beardie has started to shed while i have owned him. I was just wondering if anyone has any tips of how to help him. I know to mist him and give him baths, and i read that he would like it if it were a little dryer in his home. And i also know not to peel his shed off. But is there any other tips for me to make this easy on him and me?

Nah I think you have it about covered. My beardie does get a little grumpy and won't eat his greens always while shedding so expect may be some behavioral changes. I freaked the first time he got a litle aggressive right before a shed and didn't know what it meant and I was posting all over here looking for an answer and then he shed and was happy. So just let him stay relaxed and you both will be fine.

Yeah he has been pretty jumpy for the last couple days. I have just let him have his space lately.
