Update: Allister Is Getting ready For A Shed

[kenatk]

I am expecting Allister to begin shedding in another two or three days. his eyes are turning blue, and his skin is beginning to look matte blue as well ... and he's nipping at everything Everything except for me, I took him out for five minutes or so today just to look him over and he seems fine, and I am excited as it has been a good week for him. He ate last Tursday as you know, he didn't re-gurgitate and he was still docile and active when I picked him up today. His mouth and pits are clean and clear. I am leaving him alone except to remove urates (and hopefully some poo here soon -he still hasn't gone) and give him water every day; and his temperature and humidity are fine so hopefully, this will be a good shed.

His skin is still a little bit loose, but not as bad as when I brought him home, so he's improving.

Sounds great Kenny, just push his humidity up to around 70% till he's fully done the shed. Some bp's will use a humid hide, some won't. Hope it goes well for you and Allister. If it doesn't, no worries...tons of great threads here about what to do if there's any stuck shed left.
