Shedding Problem?

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hello All,

I have a 9-10 month old female, who is completely healthy, and well taken care of. She has never had an issue with shedding in the past, but for the last 2-3 months, something has been a bit off.
...
I noticed that she has had a normal appetite and demeanor, however, her skin has been quite dry, wrinkly, scratchy, and white, as if she were about to shed. The only problem, is that it has looked like this for about 2-3 months now......with no shed?

Does anyone know what could be going on here? There is not even a little bit of shedding-so nothing is stuck, there's absolutely no shedding AT ALL; even though she looks like she's about to shed her whole body.
I have been giving her frequent baths, brushing her with a toothbrush in the bath, and even trying to rub a bit of coconut oil on her back to help. NOTHING is working.
PLEASE HELP! I am becoming quite concerned.

Hi Karrie,

Below I have attached two pictures of her. Her colors are usually bright orange and yellow. It's a bit hard to tell from the pictures, but her skin has the "shedding look," to it, like she's about to shed. Her skin also feels like it's about to shed as well.

Her body looks like it's going to shed --- she looks like she's getting the opaque look which is normal-- it will shed in time - just let it be and as the skin becomes more dried out it will start to come off-- that when getting it wet it will come off easier---- just don't pull it off

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
