oh ya and if so can it be cured?
Yes, proper husbandry. Did you buy that book(s) yet?......
bad sheds are usually caused by low humidity, mites will also cause bad sheds. Try putting a tupperware/plastic box filled with damp sphagnum moss over the warm side of his enclosure. Make sure the hole in the box isn't to huge, the idea being to keep the moisture in the box. Just put it in when you see him go blue, he will use it when he needs, take it out after he sheds.
