Shedding problems

Ken_g_w Feb 03, 2004 03:16 PM

Hi all, Im a newbie Gecko keeper, I've only had him two weeks and he's shed for the first time. the problem is some old skin has remained on two toes in little balls, and there is a ball of skin stuck to his top lip so he cant close his mout fully. There is also little flakes of skin on his snout. Will misting the terranium do the trick, or do I have to help him out?

I have a red bulb on 24/7 because its quite cold here and the room itself is draughty.

Any advice would be great, I cant help worrying about the little guy!

Ken

Oops, sorry, he's a Leopard Gecko, bout 1 1/2 years old and is in otherwise good health, with a nice fat tail Only other thing, he seems to have a white protrusion from one of the pores between the legs, but it looks like proper scaly skin...
