Yeh, unless ackies are different to almost all other reptiles, i think you will find that humidity, and bathing, WILL help with shedding.

My young lace monitor had constricted toes, I only noticed them just in time (the constricted area was only 1-2mm thick, whereas the rest of the toes was probably 5-6mm thick) and spent every day for a week bathing him and trying to scratch the multiple layers of unshed skin off (he wasnt very cooperative!). Very painful (for me!), but once the skin was off the constricted areas filled out and now he is fine.
