Just a quick update on Saoirse.

The applications of ointment have helped tremendously! We are finding a few layers of shed still coming off, mostly on her neck and head area but slowly working at that, trying not to overstress her.

A huge thanks to Adam for his advice last night on the phone with Mike. A bit of a concern here trying to remove three stuck eyecaps on one of her eyes (the other is clear thank goodness!). Our first experience with stuck eyecaps....a bit scarey LOL. We've got two layers off and can see her eye moving under the last thin eyecap so hopefully all is well with that and it will come off with the next shed or before that.

Always looking on the upside however, she's eating wonderfully well, showing obvious weight gain and defecating/urating normally! Also no tendency to strike or bite during all this mucking about with her shed.....what a lovely girl she is!
