Hi everyone iv got a question about shedding my snakes last two sheds he cant get a little bit of dead skin off. I cant pick it off because its on the edge of his tail and he goes crazy when ever i try, iv been waiting for it to come off naturaly but it hasent and im worried because i can see at the tip is alot smaller than the other bit of the tail connected to it so what should i do?

Hi Geo-king. I had the same problem. I put mine in the bath for ten minutes to soften the skin, then took him out and let it crawl through my hands. Whilst it was doing this i had a wet paper towel thay i kept on gently wiping the tail with. This losened the skin and it came off. Hope this helps.
