    to the site!! We have a great group of ppl here and we're all great enablers when it comes to herps and each others' addictions!




    Any pics?


    What kind of enclosure do you have him housed in? what's the humidity??

    Having trouble, how? Is it stuck in pieces? Not coming off at all? Just on his tail? A little more information would be helpful.

    My RTB recently had shedding problems as well. Temps,Humidity,Nutrition all were on target, no mites etc. What worked for Maizy and I was a moist towel that I held her in and let her run through over and over and over again. NO FORCED peeling of the shed. After a long day of periodically running her through the towel all shed was off save for her head which she got off herself by morning. I am pretty sure this method would work for BP's as well.


    Best of luck
