hey guys

about 2 days ago ,my leo shed, but it looks like a small patch on his chin didn't come off.

should I try to help remove it? or is it ok for now, if i try he bites me. and the atempt made the skin more or less worse. will it come off on its own, or when he sheds again. should I make a vet visit?

Since its on the chin, its not that big of a deal. Give it another day or so to let her/him get it off. If not, wet a q-tip and rub it on the skin to make it moist, then pull it off. Make sure you dont pull too hard.

Use a wet q-tip as mentioned but do not pull it off, gentley rub it with the q-tip. If water isn't working you could also try some mineral oil on the q-tip. But since it's on the bottom of the chin it "might" not do any harm and will come off with the next shed.
