Cookie is shedding today. I've been a bit apprehensive about it, but it's going much more smoothly than his first shed with us did. Normally they're able to loosen the old skin and slough most of it in big pieces, but last time he shed it was a mess and almost looked like his old skin had exploded.

I find it cool when they shedding hihi. They looks like different after of it and gives more beautiful skin
It's really neat with the leopard geckos when they're young because their colors and patterns can change with every shed. 🙂
And that's really cool hihi
Did you help him shed his old skin?
No, it can be harmful to them so it's usually better to let them handle it themselves. The most I do for them is spray their moist hides with water so they have a humid place to retreat to if they want.
