Hi guys,
I have looked for similar posts but to no avail, so if anyone can help that would be greatly appriciated!
I have a 3 year old male who is healthy and in brumation at the moment!
Anyway at christmas time he started to shed so I bathed him twice a week and after a while he seemed to be taking to long to shed - I brought easy shed and sprayed and massaged him, then I took him for boarded as I was going away, I left the ppl there strict instruction on helping him shed and went on my way (they very responsible and have been breeding beardies for years)
When I got my boy back he had shed a little more but not much, then 2 days later went into brumation (his usual time - mid jan to end april) I never see him except for the once weekly weigh in and bath.
Anyway my question is - He has completed his shed and I am worried there maybe something up - i had a good look at him today and saw the skin is no longer loose around the edges not is it a lighter colour but some of the old skin is still there - is this a problem? what can I do to help him shed? once he is out of brumattion or before then.
just being a paranoid mother
any advice or questions will be appriciated - anything to help my baby.
