Posted - 16/08/2010 : 14:18:43 Agreed with gmac on this one. Theres no need to bath your corn unless absolutely nessesary and you dont know how he sheds yet. Chances are he will shed ok and in one piece without any intervention from you. Just let him go through the process this time and act if you need to ie if there is any retained shed etc. Good luck with it and hope you get to see it AS I HAVENT YET :( LOL |

If there is any retained shed normally letting your corn run through a damp cloth will be enough to remove the leftovers |

Posted - 16/08/2010 : 09:43:19 the eyes will go misty blue, then they will go clear so don't think omg where's his shed its normal :) keep handling to a minimum and give him a bath every other day in some shallow but warm water, more on the cold side though :) hope i helped :) |
