My beardie's name is Henry. He is 1 year old. He (although I'm almost certain "he" is a she) just shed his back and a bit of his belly. But there is still shed on his legs, chest, head and tail. I'm worried because he finished shedding his back and belly a couple weeks ago, but he doesn't seem be making any progress on the other parts... I'm giving him frequent baths, should they become daily? Should I mist him too? Are there any products that will aid in shedding? I really don't want this to become a stuck shed.
He gets a salad daily to every 5 days a week. It consists of collard greens, squash and/or carrots, and occasional fruit. He eats about 20 crickets 2 to 3 times a week (all food is lightly dusted with calcium powder.) Lighting is a regular basking bulb and a Reptisun 10.0 T5HO fluorescent tube lamp thingy. his basking temp is around 95 to 100 degrees and the ambient temp is 75 to 80. Humidity is 40%. He also has a large water dish to lay in, although I rarely see him doing so.
Those shed areas look normal to me. Sometimes they will have back to back sheds like that. I don't see cause for concern yet. If he likes baths you can offer them daily but if he doesn't like them, they aren't worth the stress. They are pretty good at finishing sheds on their own without interference from us. Sometimes a shed cycle will just take a bit longer than usual.
