    Eh Stuck Head Shed :-/
    So Isis shed with me for the first time earlier this week, and did "okay." The majority of everything came off in one big piece.
    She still had about half an inch on her tail tip, and has a patch on half of her face. It's weird because both eye caps shed, but
    her shed ripped or something (I think because she tried to do it all by spinning inside her hide) and left a chunk on top of her face :-/

    I used a warm wet towel tonight and got the tail tip completely off, and I loosened the stuck shed that is on her face, but I'm not
    going to try and pull...I figure since the caps are gone she can get it off herself...I just wanted to get it a little softer for her...

    Here are a couple pics of my little two-face that I snapped before letting her be tonight....gotta love super macro setting! (They are much better when you can blow them up some more, but I can't figure out how to change upload settings on the new [crappier] photobucket)

    poor girl, I would soak her in a closed tub with 88 degree water and a hand towel.
    It only takes a 30 minute to 45 minute soak for that to come off.

    Thanks Jerry :) I'm trying that here soon...just didn't have time last night...I know the tub soak works well, so hopefully she'll be nice and cleaned off later :)

    it looks like its already very loose and air already got under it.

    Ya it was definitely already pretty loose...

    I put her in a tub with some warm water and a wet rag...she didn't wanna rub on the rag, but it got wet enough to get off.

    I was holding her after I got her out of the tub, and she used my fingers to rub against and get the shed off...she even held still and let me gently rub her nose to help get it off...it was crazy, I have never had one that was this calm when being touched on the head/mouth area...she is awesome :)
