BP shedding troubles..
My BP is 1 year old this month. He seems to be having difficulty shedding. He's got most the skin off with the exception of some around his head and on his head, including one eyecap.
I've given him a couple of days as well as some warm water soaks, but he hasn't gotten the skin off on his own. I also used a preoduct called shed-aid by zoo med, which is supposed to loosen the skin. Since he hasn't done it on his own I'm figuring I'll have to help him out.
The problem is he is very very head shy. Most of the skin is on his head. I am wondering if anyone can offer some tips to remove the unshed skin with minimal possibilities for stress (the snake) or biting (me).
Thanks alot!
Diana
