Shed plugged nostril help

[TheBeard9789]

Looking for the best way to aid my beardie in helping her shed, her face is completely shed free. Only problem is that she has shed skin coving both nostrils she got everything else off herself except her nostrils. I tried to help by gently rubbing it but she wants no part of it and she becomes a squirmer and freaks out. Water isn't working so kinda drawing a blank here though I was thinking tweezers but it's risky

No tweezers- spray her face use a soft baby toothbrush - let her blow it out if that doesn't work

I used Q tips and just wet them and gently went over it lightly and she didn't squirm or freakout. Any soft baby tooth brush? Or like a specific brand?

I would just leave it alone. As long as there is something for her to rub it on herself she'll get it out on her own.

It's odd she rubbed her face on everything and was successful except a few tiny pieces and her nostrils

Just sounds like those areas weren't ready yet

Any baby soft toothbrush - it's good to have when the shed is dry and crackly wet them down and gently brush - this is for the body not necessarily the nostrils

I have never used a tooth brush believe it or not my vet had to show me how to take shed off I was to nervous. But this was shed that was attached by the tiniest pieces though the nostril issue is new to me
