Hey my Male Leopard Gecko has had a lot of shedding problems lately. The tips of all his toes have stuck shed on them that I can not get off. I have soaked him and he has a humid hide in his enclosure but it is still not helping much. Any tips, etc?????????????
 
Just keep soaking it in warm water. Use a q-tip to gently rub the skin off. If you're really steady you can use a pair of tweezers.
 
just be careful and soak it in warm water..dont pick it at all though..
 
Just put him in a tub of lukewarm water up to his elbows, and using a Q-tip, pull some of the shedding off :) try to keep him more humid than normal if that doesnt work.
 
you can also put a humidity box by stuffing in a lot of damp sphagnum into its hide box and make him dig his way into it. This way he will naturally get the shed off his fingers for next time.
