how many days since most of his skin shed? Usually they will rub their eyes on a branch to get it off but sometimes it sticks around for an extra day or so. Is he not eating at all? I would not worry about it unless it stays on for long time and seems to be interfering with eating. Then you could take a q-tip soaked in warm water and GENTLY touch it to where the skin is attached so it will soften and will come off easier. But give it a day or two - and don't panic. It seems that there is always a stubborn piece that takes longer to come off.
