I enjoyed reading every word of that. Thank you so much for the post. I am going through a shed issue with one of my females. She has always hated being handled 9 out of 10 times she lets you know by hissing. If you do pick her up she wants nothing to do except wiggle away. She always has had shed issues this time the worst so far. After giving her a few days 95% was still stuck. I decided to pick up some additive for a bath. Her first bath she didn't like and only wanted to get out of the tub I had her in. The additive was a moisturizer also. So I soaked her then pulled her out and let her try to work it off again. I checked her throughout and two day later decided it was time for another bath. She easily let me pic her up without complaint and just chilled out in the water as opposed to the first time. Afterwards she allowed me to work most of the shed off. This weekend will be one more and the most difficult since now all that is left is the neck and head area. She even ate yesterday and she is one that would stop about 1 week before and not eat again until a week after the shed. Thanks again for the post it really was an enjoyable read!!
