    Dumeril question

    Do Dumerils shed like a BP? My BP's first shed was a perfect one peice deal. The Dumeril I picked up had a partial shed situation going on. The guy said the Dumerils were just like that. Does that sound right?? Or perhaps he wasn't giving her good humidity during shed? She did have a soaking bowl he gave her, but I don't know what the ambient humidity was. I think she had a screen topped viv, so it couldn't have been that high...

    Re: Dumeril question

    Well I did some digging around and it seems that Dums should shed just as nicely as my BP. So I gave her a warm bath for 20mins, and then took a damp wash cloth to her head and neck were the shed was being a problem. Took care of it. She was great too. Very neet to watch her swim in the bath tub And she let me wash her head with the wash cloth with very little complaining. Good girl
