Should I be worried?

Thanks everyone, I misted his cage, and increased the temp, and now he is starting to shed. :D

I'll be sure to put up some pictures.

Great! :gj: pics are good :D

Luke finally shed, after 2 long hours of shedding he finally removed the last part of skin, but near his tail, I think they're are called his spurs, simply... near his poop hole (I have no clue what the correct term is) there was a little blood on the shed, I don't know what it's from, I heard that the area is really sensitive, and might bleed, is that true? But other than that he looks amazing, his colors stand out a lot more now. Here are some pics (I'm not sure how to upload pics, but I hope this works.

And, here is Luke resting after completely removing his old skin.

Thank you to everyone that help. :D

Edit: The pictures didn't show up, so I put the links to the pictures.

Hi,

Nice series of shedding pics. :)

And yes it is perfectly normal to get a few drops of blood from around the vent when they shed. :gj:

The only time you would need to worry about it is if it didn't stop fairly quickly or there was a lot of blood.

Thank you so much, I was really worried about the blood.

Looks GREAT!!!!!!!:D

I have never had any of mine bleed when they shed, not that I noticed anyway!!! But if some of the other replies say that it is sometimes normal I wouldnt worry about it....
