Shedding Question?

[T2theG]

Just a quick question about shedding.

My leo has a small piece of shed skin on his back, maybe a 1/16th of an inch long, should I pull it off or will this fall of naturally? Just wondering if it would hurt him if I did?

I checked around his toes and eyes, which are fine.

Thanks for any advice!

that bits fine to leave as its not constricting any thing, it will fall off in time. or you can moisten it and remove it your self but it poses not threat to the gecko

If you were going to remove it, you would get a moist Q-tip and roll the skin off. You never pull it because you could damage the new skin underneath

Thanks, I figured his skin was very sensitive and wanted to find out from people who know what they are talking about. Thanks! :main_thumbsup:
