question on shedding

nogard Sep 21, 2004 02:16 PM

My baby argentine black and white is having some difficulty shedding on his feet, is this common? He has a moist hide and a overall humidity of 65%-80%. I read that I should feed him fruits, and that it would help the shedding proccess is this true? sorry I am a newbie, and if it is true what fruits will he eat?
Thank you

Tony

I am no expert but I have read in numerous post and websites about the benefits of fruit. This is especially true for reds. My B&W is about 32" and gets 5 large green seedless grapes in the morning when he decides to get up and 5 more in the evening after his 50-80 2/3 crickets or 3-4 fuzzys.
