My adult corn has shed the tail from just above the vent but has not begun to attempt to loosen the shed from his head. Will the rest shed off in time?

Ok so he has started to shed now, although it is coming off in small sections, will wait to he has finished then will run him through a damp towel a few times to makesure it has all gone.

Damp towel is a good idea. Maybe pop a damp hide in his viv to help things along.....
