Bad shed= sticky, red, shiny skin

[russe306]

What should i do? My male had a bad shed that resulted in red, sticky, shiny skin. I soaked him for 30 minutes to make sure all the rest of the shed is gone. Should i be concerned that he shed his skin too soon? It was just his head thats like this. The rest of his body is fine.

some time areas like the head and end of the tail arent ready to shed like the rest, but they pull it off any way.
the head will probs just go a little scabby untill the next shed but shouldt be any thing to worrie about.
you could clean the area with warm water just to make sure i guess.

My leo had this happen to his tail. I just soaked him to make sure it was all off, coated him with a lil bit of mineral oil to protect the exposed area, and with in 2 days he was all better.
