    Need to get the shed off the head

    Hey got all the shed off my BP except for 1inch below her head and up to her snout on her top half. She keeps that part out of the water in a bath and she just chills out in a pillowcase. So any other helpful tips? Thanks.

    You could try holding a damp washcloth in your hands and encouraging her to slither through it. If that doesn't work....don't fret too much. A little bit of stuck shed isn't the end of the world. It'll come off eventually.

    not a big deal - do you keep in a tank or a tub? I just spill some excess water on the newspaper with stuck shed and it normally is off in a day...

    A tank but she is in her hospital tub right now because of an old wound. Its a clean towel on the bottom and a rock hide with a water dish and the humidity is bumped up. Still won't come off.
