My baby leopard gecko is about to start shedding. His whole body is turning silvery white.
What should I do to ensure good shedding? What things can I buy and what steps should I take to make sure ALL of the old skin comes off?
Thanks in advance,
ZeroX

If being obsessed with animals was an occupation, I'd be rich!
There are three steps to caring for animals:
Dont feed your leo
Have a humid hide
Mist directly on your leo once daily
you know your leo shed good when you can't find the shed.

Just make sure you provide a constantly moist humid hide and keep it on the warm side of the tank. Babies shed every few days, so they require more humidity than adults do. I put my humid hides partially off the UTH so only like a third of the hide is resting on top of the heat source.
