They shed in patches so it isn't always as noticeable as a snake or something. Mine is shedding on her right front leg now. She just finished 2 of her feet.
Just leave it all alone (but watch for toe strangling shed) and it should come off on it's own assuming you have a place for the uro to rub on.
Yup i agree! My uro only ever shed 1 all together. Every other time it's in patches different things shed at different times. Also make sure not just of the toes but of the "private" areas, some shed them seperately as well and some get stuck and then they have some issues with going to the bathroom and so on.
phew.. ok thank you very much i was starting to think there ws something wrong. i feel like a parent that takes his child to the doctor for one sneeze.
It's ok better safe the sorry!
