In Reply to: I tried to find info, but couldn't. Shedding questions... posted by Mark on December 14, 2000 at 08:35:41:

I think someone on here once compared it to our skin
when we get sunburned. If you try to peel sunburned
skin off to soon, the skin underneath is still tender
and is not ready to be exposed. So, I always think
of it like that.

: Chuck is shedding his head... My only other experience with shedding is my snake. But... snakes are a little different when it comes to this topic.

: I guess my biggest question is should I help him shed his head? Or should I just let him take care of it on his own? Reason I ask is he has this one huge piece over the tip of his nose that is trying to come off all at once. So now, it is kind of just flapping there on his nose. I started pulling it off last night, but it seemed to be quite stuck still.

: So what do I do? Water? Leave it be?

: Thanks,

: Mark
