some shed skin left??
He had his first shed with us last Friday and since then he has had shed skin on his head and what looks to be his eye caps are left. My concern is that a piece of skin is almost covering one of his nostrils. What should I do, we have misted him the past few nights and lightly rubbed him with a warm wash cloth. Any suggestions?

I'd stick him in a damp warm pillow case for ~30 minutes are so: he should remove the stuck shed himself just be moving inside the case. I usually put them in the pillow case then in a small tub so they can't escape.

Keep the humidity high in the tub and give him something to rub on like a clean rock or log.
The pillow case should work also.
He'll be fine if it doesnt come off though, it should come with the next shed. Don't be active about trying to get it off yourself, just give him the tools to do it.
