Shedding trouble-

[Sponger05]

My boa shed about 8 days ago but his head did not shed completely- there are pieces hanging and I have tried everything but pulling it off (which I dont think I should) I've given him warm baths- added a moss humid box to his cage- placed him in it.. had him crawl through a damp warm towel while I held it firmly. spraying down his cage daily to get humidity up there.... nothing seems to be working- possibly its time to make a visit to the vet?

any advice? Ill post pictures as soon as I get to my girlfriends and can put them on her computer from her digi cam- thanks guys.

Sounds like you have the rite formula on the humidity rite... I personally would do the warm soaks and then GENTLY help the old shed off with out irritating the animal.... Be sure to see if the eye caps are off as well [very important] as well as the tip of the tail.

All should be good though..... not to fret too much...

So it's ok if I gently pull off the shed? She's finally hanging out in her moss box right now. So I am going to let her be maybe her skin will losen up and tonight ill give it a try...
