    Re: Ekohs first shed coming soon

    Ekoh, right. Sorry about that.
    Looks to be healing nicely. Some of that injured tail looks like it will need to be removed or will fall off at some point.

    Looks like the area I'm talking about is dead.

    Re: Ekohs first shed coming soon

    i got an update. well around 8pm tonight the power went out and they got it fixed around 1 am. well between that time i went to hunt some big nightcrawlers since it rained so much. i probably got 20 or more of them. well after collecting them i cut one up a bit and fed Ekoh and Bugger a fresh snack. after that the last time i checked in on Ekoh was around 12-12:30. i went back just to say hello and wouldn't ya know he shed probably 98% one big piece both eye caps, and wow does his color looks good and bright.




    i think the elongated spots look like bunny ears lol






    now there is a small problem the 2% is the tail wound there is a little piece or his shed left where is stuck because of the scabbing, should i try and remove it or just let it be?

    If it's on living tissue I would remove it. If it's on dead tissue it really doesn't matter, removing it won't help or hurt.

    How about a photo of what you're talking about?
