what i do when they have stuck shed is mist his enclosure more and if it doesnt come off them ill give him a soak with 70-80 degree water only like 1 or 2 inchs in a tub for 15 minutes and wipe it off with a q tip it happens when humidity is too low when there shedding

#

you can give a humid hide by cutting a whole in a tupperware cup big enough for him and put damp spagnum moss in there
