Can't seem to get an answer in the Health board.

So Bulmers started shedding this weekend. he gets daily soaks, sometimes two. During the shed, his skin stays tented longer than usual. I know this normally means dehydrtion, but since he gets plenty of water, is this just a part of the shedding process??? Other than that, he's his normal self. Thanks much all.

Hi. Can you post a pic of what you are describing so that we can tell for sure what it may be?

Of course it's not happening anymore, so there goes that idea. Haha. It was just basically loose skin on his side that would wrinkle up when he turned to look behind him and back to normal a bit slower than usual when he would straighten back out. I know he's not dehydrated. He gets his daily soaks and drinks a bit off his nose during these. He's eating fine also. His poops look fine and he's very active. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. If it happens again, I'll get a picture. He just ate about 60 crickets, so he's looking a bit fat right now.

Sounds like it is probably nothing to worry about, but try to get a pic if you see it again, just in case.

I know what you are talking about. The skin bunches up if they turn or something like wrinkles. A lot of people say thats a sign of dehydration but if your dragon is well hydrated then what could it be? Mine is the same way.
