And it will be alright to do the same with the one with the ri, the higher humidity will thin out the mucas, allowing her to breath a little easier.

As for how to get them out, most atbs are bitey in the cage, but if you just go straight in and grab them don't tend to bite when out, there are exceptions mind, but if you are worried about them biting you, removing them with a hook, or long branch will be fine.
Ohhh i like that idea! I was reading online and some said that using vegi oil or mineral oil works for really bad stuck shed. What are your opinions on that?
