Our 11 foot red tail, which we got as a rescue about 3 months ago, seems to have the eye caps still on. He has shed once in this period. He will not eat and is getting rather skinny. The fact that he can't see may be a factor.
I have tried to use tape to remove the caps and have put him in a warm tub of water with some olive oil, which did make removing the skin on his head that did not come off with the shed easy to remove. But we are getting worried about the eyes.
This is my first post on this forum so any advice that could be offered would be helpful.
