shedding problem with same type

[TWC]

i have about 4 geckos, all the same looking, they are a high yellow color with orange on their heads and tails. they have a shedding problem on their face. they have trouble with the nose and eyes. their cage mates have no problem, just they do. is there a way i can get this to stop happening, is it a genetic defect? it just happens to those 4 that are the same morph.

I sometimes have a gecko that will do that. They grow out of it.

I think its a learned thing. Like we learn to pick things up and eat. I think its the same with them. They learn how to do it better at school lol

I dunno what's going on lately but we have had shedding problems here too. Maybe it's the cooler weather and dry air. But we have had head, nose, and toe problems.
