    Can BP's only shed eye caps?

    So about 3 days ago my BP's eyes went blue. I checked in her today and her eyes aren't blue and I can't find any shed skin. What happened????

    No, the eyes are the most likely part to get stuck if any part does. For the most part they go blue for a couple days, then they clear up, and shed in a couple more days. Nothing has shed yet. Just wait another day or two and you'll see.

    Once the eyes go clear again, it takes them anywhere from a day or two up to a week or more before shedding. Most of mine will shed about 2-3 days after their eyes have gone blue. Keep waiting, a shed is coming!

    The tip of the tail can be a problem spot. I check eyes, vent, & tip of tail..
