Does Oliver look ok?

[pbyeerts]

Can someone please let me know if Oliver looks okay? I've been assuming that he's in a shed cycle. But he looks God awful to me. I know that I'm a nervous new mom, but I'd like the opinion of some knowledgeable BP folks here.

Thanks,
Pamela

Looks to be in Blue to me. Yes getting ready to shed.

Yep, keep his humidity up and handle him as little as possible until he sheds.

Ok thanks! I wanted to make sure that he looks normal and isn't sick.......

He's fine. Definitely looks like he is going into shed. Leave him be for a few more days and you will be surprised at the "new" Oliver. Just an FYI on the process - You will notice some dulling of his colors first, then his eyes will turn opaque or "Blue" (may be happening already in the pictures). This will disappear in a day or so, followed in a couple days with a shed. Mine typically shed during the night leaving me a nice surprise in the morning.

Make sure your temps and humidity are good. Maybe bump up the humidity closer to 70% and all should be good. If this is occurring on a feeding day you can go ahead and try to feed. He may eat and he may not. Leave it up to him.

Good luck!

He looks just like my boy right now.

Part of the shedding process.

Thanks again everyone! I knew that his appearance would change, but I didn't think that it would be this drastic

Lol... That's definitely a shed coming on. I can see why you'd be concerned, he DOES look a little like a zombie.
