About your leo:

- Got from +++++
A) Health/History
- not handled very often
- Has had toe shedding issues

C) Problem
- He shed last saturday, but has some skin left on his eye. His other eye has a black rim around it, I believe it is retained shed, but I am not sure. Putting him in water won't help, it does not touch his head. It's a small area I can't really get too. Is there anything I can do to make it fall off, or does he absolutely need to be taken to a vet. I don't have much money, so if I can help him myself, I will.

I will try to post pictures after work tonight. I am in school right now so I can't.
