So, I was away for 2 weeks, and while I was away my lovely boy started eating fluffs. I missed him eat his first one, but saw him do it today :) so happy lol.
ALSO, Mitch is having some problems with shedding, all is going perfectly until his tail. He now shed 2 days ago, and his tail still has skin left on it, what can I do to help him? ANY advice appreciated, thanks people.

Anyway, heres the pics :)







And I know this isnt a feeding pic but I love it lol, looks like he's having a duvet day :)

You will have to wait for a couple of days now so that he digests his fuzzy. Then you could hold his tail in a cup of warm water for a short while, then remove his tail from the cup and let his tail move through some damp kitchen towel holding the kitchen towel firmly but don't nip it tight. The remaining skin should just slide off in the kitchen towel.
Nice pics by the way.

While he's digesting you could add a moist hide to his faun/viv. Then after the 48 hours try letting him slither through a damp towel, normally works a treat!
Lovely photos.
