    Wrinkled Skin
    I'd wait until tomorrow myself , when I occasionally notice that the loose ski and head rubbing they usually shed the skin that night . If it doesn't you can reassess the situation tomorrow .

    I'd give the viv / rub a good spray now as well .

    Ok, so I soaked him today and removed the shed myself today. I got it all of his body except for the bottom of his head and neck area (a little bit behind his head on his underside). How do you recommend I get that part off?

    YAY!!! For that little bit, I'd see if he can do it on his own or just wait until the next shed cycle. There's a very good chance it'll come off with the rest of the shed now that he's in a good home with you. Congrats! :gj:

    Thanks, I put plexi glass over the screen top and it seems to be holding in humidity a little bit better so hopefully he will shed in one piece next time. Do you think he will eat even though he has the shed on the underside of his head and a little on his neck?

    He should eat like a champ. If he doesn't, it won't have anything to do with that little piece of leftover shed.
