quick question

jonnyblaze Apr 04, 2007 07:30 PM

my cham. just shed about 4 days ago and still has some skin left on his spikes on his back..should i try to help him out and get it off(it looks like it goes all around the spike),or do ya think it will come off by itself..i just don't want him to have retained skin from a shed that could effect him,like it would if it went all the way around his leg or something..thanks for the help..

You can try and remove it with the pads of your fingers...not your nails. Try and get it damp if you can't get it off easily...don't worry about it too much..it'll usually come of with the next shed.
