How Long To Finish Shedding?

[DRecord]

My bearded dragon started turning white about 5 days ago so I know he is shedding but I haven't seen any skin come off yet. Im just curious how long will it take for him to finish shedding because he hasn't been eating much and Im kind of scared for his health. He is only 3 months old if that matters.

I think it depends on the dragon and the part of the body thats shedding. My beardie's tail takes about 2-3 weeks to shed once it turns white, but his head and arms are almost immediate. His body usually takes a week or two, but once it starts coming off it only takes about an hour! lol

it depends on the beardie. sometimes it can be like that for over a week, sometimes longer.

soaks in water will help dry out the skin quicker and a soft bristled toothbrush with help loosen it as well. plus the toothbrush makes them feel better, it's like a back scratcher.
