    shedding question

    my bp is only about a 3 months old is about to go in shed for the first time with me since i got her. he skin is very dull and her eyes changed to like a bluish gray. i was wondering when should i soak her in water to help her with her shedding and have no problems?

    It wouldn't hurt anything but as long as the humidity in her enclosure is 50%-60% there shouldn't be a problem.

    No need to soak, but I would bump the humidity up a bit during the shed

    I would only soak after she sheds if there is any stuck shed. As said before, no need to soak, bump up humidity...soak after shed if needed!
