Shed question

[Ripleysmom]

About 2 weeks ago, our beardie developed a patch on her head, one forearm, one hand, part of her beard and the base of her tail that went silver like she was preparing to shed. We've been bathing and misting her daily but the skin isn't really coming off.

Will they do partial sheds and can it take a few weeks?

Yes, they can shed in patches, especially adults and it can take wks before it all comes off. Bathing and rubbing with a soft toothbrush may help make her more comfortable and help it to loosen up. You can post some pics of the areas if you'd like and we can take a look.

I will post up pics if nothing changes, but I feel much better knowing they shed in patches and it can take a while. Thanks so much!
