Shedding and Bloating

[Reptilelady]

Hi,
You can see in the photos he has some shed around his mouth area, anyway to get rid of it or just leave it alone? He still seems to be bloated or is he "pancake" to get more heat? What do you think?




Thanks!

Always leave shed to come off naturally. Pancaking is also normal.

Thanks Mysty!
I thought pancaking is a sign they are cold/trying to warm up?

Pancaking is normal. Spike does it a bit when my kids are being rambunctious and they move too fast and spook her, or if the dog barks at the door, she will do it too. It makes them look larger than they really are in an attempt to make themselves look scarier.

Your little one doesn't look bloated to me, but I am by far no expert. Definitely cute though!
