When their eyes go bluish don't handle them because they might get scared because it fogs their vision.

I dont really handle when theyre about to shed. I dont wanna stress them out. Be sure to give them a mouse after shedding. Shedding makes them exhausted and they really appreciate a good meal afterwards lol
