    Leave it alone...it should come off at the next shed. That being said, make sure temps and humidity is optimal going into the next shed cycle.

    You can do more damage than good messing with eyecaps. Leave it till the next shed, and it should come off. Make sure your humidity is up for the shed.

    Well, everything else came off perfect, except one eye. I dunno why that 1 eye decided to stay on. Humidity stays 60+ in the room at all times, and I even must her tub every other day to raid it a little more!!!
