    Hey guys. My Pinstripe has stuck she'd on her back?

    What is the best way to get rid of it?

    Let her soak in some warm water.

    Half hour to an hour warm water soak then put him in a small container with warm damp towels for an hour. Any retained shed will come off next time.

    I wouldn't.
    Most times it will just come off next shed. Increase the humidity during the shedding process. Adding damp moss, or wet paper towels over the heat source will bump up the humidity to effectively facilitate a complete shed.

    I just throw in damp paper towels and bump the humidity, they will work it off themselves.
