I started soaking him back in Saturday because the pet store we got him from said he was dehydrated. We couldn't get him to eat. I was completely unaware that he was coming due for a shed. I feel pretty awful now because I'm not sure if soaking him is what may have caused some of the issues he is having now. I was soaking him for 20 minutes twice a day for Saturday, Sunday, and once on Monday. Came home from work on Tuesday and almost panicked when I saw his head looked like a massive blister had just popped around his eye. I know now he was just starting his shed. I hate this feeling of not doing enough of the right things for him.
