So Lotus has been looking like she's going to shed her entire head, most of her tail, and a lot of her underbelly. It's been two weeks since the signs of a shed became apparent, but not a single scale has lifted off yet. It went from looking frosty white, to kind of translucent, to now looking like it's almost blending back into her skin. Her sheds have always taken a little longer than normal, but at this point I'm starting to worry. She gets several 15-20min soaks per week, plus we've been misting her too since this shed started. I know something like this may sometimes be indicative of illness, but she hasn't been acting any differently and her appetite is fine. The only thing that's changed recently is that I switched from a Powersun 160w to a Reptisun 10.0 plus basking bulb (her temps have been perfect - measured with infrared temp gun). Any ideas/suggestions...???

This is a larger dragon, if I remember ? Don't worry, it always takes them longer to shed. I've seen every strange looking shed you could shake a stick at, they are 99.9% of the time harmless.

She's guesstimated (rescue) at about 2yrs old, she's 17.5" and 500g in weight. Thanks for your help yet again AHBD... any idea when I should start to worry?

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. 😔
