With Winnie's latest shed, her foot is quite impressive. I was fascinated by the fact that the entire former abcess was shed this time. Nice new skin underneath but indented from where the abcess was. I broke apart the shed abcess. It was dry and brittle, nothing more than a fancy scab. Thought you all might find it interesting as I have had her over a year now and battled the infection all last spring and summer. They do these things quite slowly.

Thats great Angela, I agree as far as doing things slowly.
As compared to some of my other lizards these guys shed rather slow.

I have a male collared named Winnie...I guess it will have to be changed to Wynnie ;P

I know these things take time and often have had them on antibiotics for over 3 months.
