Shed?

[Lala]

hey guys

im pretty new to this, only had her about 2months but we just took chilli out and she looks to have a tiny flake of what i think may be her shedding? it is reeaaaalllyyy a tiny little flake and i cant see anything around her toes so im not sure if she has already shed or if its the start? she is still really bright coloured tho thats why im not so sure, any body any ideas or am i worrying too much? :main_laugh:

She probably shed when you were sleeping. They will get cloudy and a white color due to the skin being dry before they shed. They eat the shed to so you won't find it in the tank. My boy just shed two days ago and he is back to bright orange and yellow. Check her toes and see if there is any skin left or not. It sounds like she already shed tho,

I got my boy when he was about to shed and he looked all washed out color wise now he is back to being bright, it was a huge color differnce

When I first got mine, I would randomly find white flecks on them...and think too it was shed before I actually saw the shedding process. It turned out (for me) that it was just drops left from dusted crickets that walked on them. It ended up wiping right off. If it's just one tiny fleck.... could it be just a spot of calcium dust? At least worth checking

oh its not calcium dust she been covered in that before, stood on the side of her dish and tipped it all over her :main_laugh: it looked just like a tiny little piece of skin that we would get around our fingertips, that sort of idea..
