Stuck shed ?

[DonnaRaine]

Sorry if Im overloading the forum idk what the rules are exactly on here yet, but my little one is shedding and I cant tell for sure because Ive never had an animal in shed before, but it looks like some individual scales are stuck on her back, OR it could just be her scales, I cant tell. More experienced eyes please help ! the pictures are the same one just one has the scales circled. she HATES the toothbrush by the way, and loves to swim, she keeps shoving her head under and making me scared shes getting water in her ears

That's just her scales A lot of their scales are tipped in white like that. And it doesn't look like she's shedding at all either, actually.

Hi there, you can post as much as you want when you have questions, no problem. Looks like a healthy baby [ and very pretty ] and the shed went fine. Keep in mind that even if there WAS a very uneven shed or little specks left over that is perfectly normal. The only time to worry is if the tail or toes were being restricted by a small piece of retained shed which would look like a rubber band was wrapped around.

Thank you ! You all are so very helpful. I have a diagnosed anxiety disorder so I tend to overthink things and work myself up. Shes got a tiny bit of mucus in her eyes, shes been bulging them lately so I think shes loosening the skin there, could the mucus just be from that ? Its clear, not colored, she eats really well, 11 pheonix worms, turnip greens and squash for breakfast, she even eats all of her greens, shes only 2 months
