Stuck shed

Any helpful tips on ways to get small pieces (like 5 scales) of stuck shed off? Warm water and humidity isn't doing it for me.:8: Is there a product I can buy? Like shed eaze? And is it any good?

My advice would be just be patient, keep the humidity a little higher and give them a short soak. If it still doesn't come off then wait until the next shed and it should come off with the next one. Dont worry too much about it, unless it was the eye caps.

You could set up a moist hide, upside-down tupperware dish, cut a hole in the side, put the moss stuff in it, pour warm water in let it sit for 15 min for the moss to absorb the water, then put in the tank. My snakes will kinda chill in theirs at times, and it seems to loosen up stuck shed bits. Another thing I've done is get a damp washcloth and hold it around the snake, letting the snake crawl through it.

I've had shed eaze, and I feel using a warm/damp washcloth works better & saves money.

You can put damp sphagnum moss in the hide and let the BP do the rest.

Same as everyone else has suggested really, no real need for any shed-aid. When my royal had some stuck shed on the top of his head (Eyecaps came off), I simply kept the humidity at the higher 60's and put some sphagnum moss in his favorite hide, sprayed it, and by the next day the shed was off.
