You peoples out there must hear this alot but its got me confused. Xena is due a shed and about 10 days ago I noticed her eyes turning and her colour going dull. Over the next week ive been giving her baths measured at 32 degrees every couple of days and her eyes turned blue. But now there's no traces of a shed and all her colour has returned and her behaviour Is almost back to normal too. Ive given her a moss hide and the temp is measured from inside. is she still gonna shed?
wat do you have in her damp hide ?? i use moss and once its done i leave it i dont mist it at all i check it to make sure no mould spores when i do water but aprt from that i dont cause too much humid could cause an R.I thats the only reason i ask hun x
The humidity is 53%. Im using green moss I got for a reptile shop near me. I froze it till I needed it then used boiling water to make sure there was no bugs in there. then I squeezed the water out till it was slightly damp. I only lightly mist the hide Cos otherwise it dry's out.
Thanks for all your help, Xena had a 100% shed last night. no poop yet though and has only lost 2 grams in the 15 days she's not eaten for. :-) is it ok to offer her food now? Since she's out and about and before she shown no interest.
As soon as I turned the hairdriver she appeared at the hatch hole in the faun. And she Even tried to strike for the rat fluff as I was opening the tank, took it with no hesitation
shed problems?
