Stuck shed question

[Jay&barry]

So I'm going to buy e45 cream for him since alot of people recommend i.( With a bi weekly bath instead of his current 1per week) but I haven't seen any applying instructions...my be a dumb question but should it only be a little bit or as much as he can absorb before it won't soak in anymore? I'm getting it today but I don't want to over do it. Also is there a waiting period for baths when i use e45? Thank you!

I may have mentioned this in another thread but I provide a thick layer of cypress mulch and dump water in it weekly. Large slabs of slate are provided for borrowing. The humidity under those slabs tends to run 70-90% even though here in AZ the RH runs around 20%. I don't do soaks and have yet to experience any shedding problems.

Thanks for the tip! He's in a 4x8 wood hutch atm it is waterproofed but a whole bucket may be too much for it till his main enclosure is finished

I converted a relatively cheap and light 8 x 3 horse trough. It works well with my approach. I put trellis and a combination of pothos and plastic plants around it for aesthetics.

Oh sick. Mines 2x4 and ply only waterproof enought to protect the wood for long term use but haven't gotten the permit cage set up yet

If your Tegu has stuck shed try grinding up some calcium tablets into his/her meal. Next day give your tegu a warm soak in the bath. Should come off within a day or two!

Thank you so much! I'll give this a try tonight.

Not a problem did it for my male after brumation and it worked like a charm. I'll try to make a vid how to do it on my handle too. Looks like my female needs a little help as well.
