Is it ok to help him shed?

Darwin's first shed is going poorly. He's getting little bits off at a time. Is it ok to peel him?

Thanks!

I wouldn't peel him. There is a sticky at the top of this forum on bad sheds. Take a read of that. It should help.

If you want to help him shed, you should soak him for 10-20 minutes and then let him move through a damp cloth. I don't think just peeling the shed off is a good idea.

Yeah, no peeling please! You can most definitely assist him in the shedding process as long as you do it in the correct manor. Check out the below link.

thanks guys!!!

Anytime, good luck with the shed. Happens to all of us at some point - Just keep a close on the signs of a shed and keep your husbandry up to par!!
