Possible nose plug from shedding?

So I’m a new beardie mommy. I got my Ember last month. Ember has started to shed and is having a hard time breathing. I think it’s stuck shed in the nostril. I wanted to see what everyone thinks. I don’t know if it’s ready to come out yet or not. Any help with this I’d appreciate. I want to help my baby breath better.

let it be, it will come out when it is ready. in general it is not good to help them shed, but especially in sensitive places like the nostril or eye area.

So that is a nostril clog then from shedding? Will Ember be okay with the mouth breathing until it comes out?

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
