If the shedding is still bad, you can also make a "humidity chamber" out of a tupperware container. Make sure it's big enough, put a bamboo branch or a stick they can climb on in there and then get a hand towel and soak it in warm water, put it on the floor of the container. You can drill a few holes on top of the lid and place the gecko in there for an hour. Kinda like a sauna. I've never done it with my day gecko's but I've done it for my chameleons. They don't like being in the small container, but it only took 1 hour in there and they got all the dry skin off the next day... Do you have any pictures of them??
