    There shouldn't be an issue with stuck shed. She has only been on paper towels her entire life. And that is good to know though. I just want to make sure that there isn't anything going on. I try to be really attentive with all three of them and Salazar is heading towards a shed right now. Getting paler and paler every day so I see his shed being really soon. Thanks for clearing up my fears though. I would hate to have any of them get sick. But when she did it I had her out of the tub for about 20-25 minutes while I was sitting on the computer and she was just moving around and she stopped for a second and then just opened her mouth wide and yawned and then kept moving.

    That's pretty much what my guy does. I've never paid attention to exactly when he does it during shed cycles though. But, if he's out and about for a little while, like you said about 25 minutes, he usually stops for a minute to yawn and then moves right along like a human would do if we sneezed.
