    Talking Stuck Shed Begone! [Updated from last post]

    hello everyone! if you read my last (and very first) post on this forum, you'll know that my darling BP pretzel is suffering from multiple stuck sheds—but not for much longer!

    my baby just went back in his cage from his 2nd shed and looks amazing! but, of course, I wanna show the improvement off: picture here!

    thank you all so much. if you've seen the pictures in the last post, he looks 100 times better (only some stuck shed on his head/neck and tail!) and i couldn't have fixed him up without all of your guys' help.

    for sure i'll definitely be coming back with any future problems / questions i have with pretzel! and obviously, expect a ton of pictures when he's all completely better.

    I don't know how he looked before but I'm glad he's coming along well now.

    Looks a lot better but still see a lot of stuck shed. I'd soak him some more. Also ditch those shavings. I would switch to a more humidity holding substrate like Eco Earth, ReptiChips, Cypress mulch or any of that stuff.

    Remember, you need to get the humidity up in the cage or else you will keep running into stuck shed problems.
