Hello everyone,
My beardie is shedding in patches, he has some stuck shed that doesn't want to come off. He isn't too fond of baths so I just mist him with a spray bottle or just use a wet washcloth over the skin that is having problems coming off. Is there anything else i can do for him? It is taking a long time for it to come off :(

Hi there, this situation is always posted here but there is no problem. :) Beardies shed at their own rate so there's no need to intervene at all. The ONLY time you'd help is if there was a tight, rubber band like strip of retained shed cutting off circulation to the toes or tail end. Here's one of my dragons, this is perfectly normal.

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
