Hi! I’ve had my BP for exactly a month, I ordered him from underground reptiles as a baby so he is probably 3-4 months old, and he is currently shedding. As soon as i noticed his skin changing and his eyes turning blueish, I started to mist his enclosure several times a day to increase the humidity. I have a digital hydrometer in the cage that says his humidity is at about 70%. But as of about two days ago he is actually shedding, and it’s coming off in small pieces. The majority of his old skin is still on his body and several small pieces have come off. He’s actively trying to get the skin off by rubbing his body all over the rough things in the enclosure and I can tell that he is very stressed so I’m not sure what to do!! I’ve heard that you can soak him in warm water, and I tried doing that but he did NOT like it and kept escaping the bowl and I felt like i was stressing him even more so after a few minutes I put him back in his cage. What should I do to help him?
