shedding and bathing

[RobotLover]

So I got Rizzo and Kinickie last week and there about 7 weeks old. Rizzo is shedding like crazy today I want to give them a clean. I'm kinda nerves she's small I know not to fill it up to high obviously, and Luke warm water right? And I should do this about 2 hours after being under there light right? I'm a new parent to these guys any help or suggestion on how to help them with shedding and bathing? Thanks

She didn't look like this an hour ago should I peel it off or just leave her. I rubbed aloe vera gel on her.

just let the beardie shed on its own. sometimes, there will be parts of the shed that don't come off and bathing will help those pieces come off. but definitely don't start pulling the shed off yourself.

Give them a bath and it will basically end up coming off on its own anyway. I find full belly sheds from my babies in the climbing plants they have.

cool warm baths are great way to help them shed 10-15 mins a day while they shed i think not sure so no one shoot me lol.. dont however pull the shedding off as it will hurt them and may cause damage good luck x

Yep, if you pull it off then the skin underneath the shedding may be sore/sensitive which won't be very nice for them.
