Vita Spray does nothing... In fact, every Iguana we have recieved that was treated with Vita Spray had a greasy slimy coating on their skin. Totally gross, and it actually makes shedding WORSE.

To help the shed process, just give your ig a nice soak, and then gently pull off the skin that is ready to come off. Dont pull anything off that gives you resistance, only the stuff that comes off easily.

Problem shed areas to watch for... Parietal eye, all fingers and toes, tip of tail (and anywhere on the tail where shed is constricting blood flow), and spikes on back.

: Hello...I noticed there is skin shedding from my Iggys head, and I was wondering what, if anything, I can do to help in this process...I purched Vita-Spray,which is supposed to aid in shedding,but I'm not sure if it will
