Hi Andy,



Last spring, one of my '04 Ghosts didn't do her first shed with all the other babies. She had plenty of moisture/humidity, etc. - just like them. They all shed, and her skin got all krinkly and thick feeling. I kept her humidity a little higher than theirs and I misted her paper towel substrate more often. After a while, she was a pretty pitiful looking thing, however when it came time for the others to start into their 2nd shed, she shed right along with them. No Problem! She emerged from her cocoon of skin unscathed, and all her sheds after that were normal.
