Hello to everyone,
My /G. vittatus/ had an incomplete shed last week. In four years she
has never had a bad shed. She has retained the skin on the rear half of
her body, and on all four feet. I have been misting heavily twice a day
with warm water for 4 days, but she has not made any efforts to remove
it as far as I can tell. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go
about removing the skin? Do I simply pull it off using tweezers? I
can't really picture doing that to the feet. I have some glycerin that
I will put on the old skin before I try removing it. If anyone has any
suggestions I would very much appreciate hearing them. Thanks.
