Shedding problems

ecrowell Jun 03, 2007 12:24 PM

I recently (a Month) adopted an adult dragon that was obviously malnourished. Since then she is eating much better and looks alive again, but she starting shedding and is having trouble in some areas. Is their a way I can help her? She looks like the phantom of the opera with her face half peeled. Thanks in advance.

You can try soaking her. usually helps. If her health isnt great then it could be a reason for a poor shed. try soakin her and see if that helps out. Also when she is shedding mist her one or two times a day and that will usually give enough moisture to aid in the shed process.
