hey all!I bought my first baby ball Sunday. When I bought him he was in shed. The next day(monday) we noticed lots and lots of small pieces of skin here and there. I'm a little worried b/c the skin is not coming off all in one piece. The top half of him is shed(except for a tiny peice on his nose) but the bottom half(as of last night) was still on him. I watched him for a while last night trying to scratch it off. I mist his cage a couple of times a day to help with humidity. He is staying mostly on his cool side dug down in the subsrate..is all this fairly common? He seems otherwise healthy, active and very curious about us and everything around him...when is it ok to handle/feed him?? any help would be appreciated..thanks!
