Shedding

Hey all. My BRB had its first shed for me earlier this week. It was in about three pieces but all of it came off. I think that is fine, but i will mist a bit more next time. Just want your opinions. OH and he is feeding a bit more aggressively, I actually got to see him eat

Unless it tore from being stuck on cage furnishings, it could be a bit dry. Try a moss hide box like I mentioned in the post above.

I just wanted to know where you get your moss. Is it at a garden center?

I get the sphagnum peat moss at my local garden center (Orchard Supply Hardware) The green moss I get in 25# bales from www.mossproducts.com/pricesheet.html
