Thank you for your help Jeff. I have been stressing over this constantly and waiting for them to shed it out but it isn't happening. Some are way better off than others though. No one seems to know what to do. I really appreciate your advice... what type of soap do you recommend using, and how hard should I scrub? Should I just use a washcloth? Should I go with the scales or against them also?
My vet does have a degree in reptiles and has always provided me good advice and care before (I think!) He did a great job when a female corn of mine needed a C-section and has always impressed me by the way he handles my boas. However, I am going to try searching for another vet around here who knows reptiles and see what I think of them. I usually use this forum as a 'second opinion' after my vet gives me diagnosis' or treatments if I cant find any info in a good book or a good web site but unfortunately I didnt ask on this one til after it was too late.
Thank you again for this information.

Take care,
Nicole
