First of all I want to say I'm not new to herp keeping. I Know how to deal with a normal shedding problem. This problem isn't normal. I noticed a while back that some of the skin around his ear didn't come off with his shed. I gave him the normal treatments like increasing humidity and soaking. the problem with soaking is that he won't stay in the water. he climbs up on the sides of the soaking container. Also, he pretty much refuses to be handled, so manually removing it with tweezers is a lot more difficult than it sounds. He has shed several times since then and every time he sheds he leaves another layer of skin in that ear. His ear is now completely clogged. A couple of days ago I managed to get him out of the cage for 10 or 15 minutes and pick at the skin with a pair of tweezers but i didn't make much progress at all. the clump of skin is really wedged in there and it is very hard. I don't know what to do about it. If some one could give me a hand I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
