    Stuck shed
    I have a 5 month old chocolate BP that seems to be having problems with stuck shed. He has many specks of stuck shed all along his belly and top of his body. I've been giving him warm baths to help but nothing seems to be working. I just saw on the internet Zoo med repti shedding aid...anyone ever used it? I'm looking for any assistance in the matter. Thanks!

    put him in a wet snake bag/pillow case for a few hours and that should do the trick.

    x2 on the wet pillow case. Works like a champ! I would not mess with the Shed-Aid stuff.

    Thank you for finding this thread! I think this thread used to be a sticky back in the day.

    I soak mine as shown in the attached thread and gently rub my thumb down over the stuck shed to help peel it off
