    Question lucky me!!

    Nag went through his shed successfully! I'm so excited! Last time he shed, I had to sit there with tweezers to pick off everything that didnt come off, but this time, I have a beautiful single shed! Thanks to everyone who has helped me out with Nag's tank issues. I'm sure that without all you help, I would still be struggling with issues.

    Anyway, my question this time is this :

    Nag somehow managed to shed INSIDE his hide...completely inside his hide. anyone else ever seen that or is it just an everyday things? LOL or am I just lucky like that?

    Most of mine shed that way. It took me a year, before I actually saw one of them shedding. Congrats on the shed!!

    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off

    Re: lucky me!!

    It was pretty exciting to me since his first shed with me went badly. he was overly stressed I think from the ordeal of his trip here. but aparently thanks to you guys he is doing real well. I just got so excited LOL My fiancee just nods and says "yes dear" ...its nice to have other people I can share this kind of excitement with.

    oh...I just found out LOL he takes Nag out of his tank sometimes when I'm not around he busted himself *grin*

    Re: lucky me!!

    Cleo has always shed in her hide...I'd guess it's because they have ready edges/rough sides/etc to rub against to get the skin off while still being in a safe place. =)

    Round and round and round - get that icky skin off!

    Re: lucky me!!

    it was a great idea to get the second hide. I dont remember offhand who suggested it, but everyone helped. so Nag says a big thanks to you all for helping
