Pablo my 4 year old MBK just had a really bad shed this is really unusual for him. The problem is he hid away for a week and never went really into blue so colour change no oils ive, had him soaking for a day but it seem no way its going to come of. Any ideas?

I use a damp towel or flannel and get them to slither through whilst I hold kinda tightly. I'm not sure if shed ease would work either to be hontest.

I would just go with the baths for now before you spend money on products like shed esse that I not too sure work that well.

HI i tried the towel thing yesterday but the skin is showing no signs of coming off will keep going with it. By no oils i mean the lubricant they produce. Going to get some shed ease give that a try

Hi, I would wet a towel and let them crawl through it a few times. I have a couple of old towels that are quite rough that are ideal for this. This should get any excess shed off of him. I just had to do the same with my royal. I wasn't sure what you meant by "no oils".
