    Hatchling shed question

    So I am keeping my hatchlings in the incubator until they shed and once they shed I am moving them into the rack. Two of them have shed today but how can I tell the ones that have shed apart from the ones who haven't since they are all in one tub. Of course the ones with blueish eyes have not but other than that, what is the best way to tell. I am pretty sure this one for sure has shed, what do you think?

    That's why once they come out of the egg, I put them into their own tub in a rack. You can tell who is peeing, poo'ing and shedding without guessing. I have no idea why you'd leave them in the incubator until after their first shed.

    The texture of them tells the difference. The more satiny ones have shed. It's really not that difficult for me to tell, but harder to explain.
