Trying to do Sauna with Soot right now to remove that stuck toe molt. It's been 2, 12 minute sessions and it's still hard. Shall I up the wetness? Increase hotness? Not putting enough effort/pressure?

#

I'm having a hard time going for it since he's trying to crawl out and I'm scared of putting too much pressure to hold him down...

how are you tryna remove it?

#

you dont want the water too hot, just luke warm. let it sit a bit longer, and if necessary put a lid on whatever container youre using

Am I not supposed to prod for softness then pull if it's kinda elastic?

Ok, I'll keep up with the sauna since it ain't even budging with the qtip

After a bit more than an hour of stress for both me and Soot, the stuck toe shed is now removed.
