    Shedding Question?

    Morning Everyone...

    My female pastel had a less than perfect shed friday night. She shed everything except a small piece on her back and a small piece (size of a nickel) on the back left side of her head. The small spot on her back came off no problem, but I wasn't able to get the small spot on her head off after the usual bad shed procedures.

    Question - Can I just leave her be until her next shed without her being affected in any way. Eyecaps and gone and there is no stuck shed anywhere around her mouth.

    You could try to remove it if you want, but if you ask me, either she'll get it off if you keep the humidity up, or she can manage with it on until the next shed with no problems.

    Yeah I tried twice - the first time she didn't mind me helping her out, but the second time she was not impressed at all. I have kept her humidity a little bit higher than normal just in case - she has eaten since and doesn't appear to be uncomfortable at all...
