ummm, I don't know what planet I've been on but since when do Uroplatus shed within a few hours when humidity drops? Maybe I'm not the brightest candle out there but um... since when does that happen? I've never had this occur and I've got quite a collection of uroplatus. I must be under a rock to never have seen this.

Sikorae are one of the most notorious for not coming in the country in good condition. To be truthful, they are usually don't fair well when not attended to appropriately. Try working with something like U.ebanaui first before trying Sikorae. They are easier to work with and will teach you everything you need to start with when choosing Uroplatus.

Also, don't get discouraged because of the vendor. Most don't have a clue on what they are trying to push off on the consumer. Most aren't in it for the animal, they are in it for the buck.

And Yes I know my uroplatus, I've been working with them for quite some time.
