In the early hours of this morning Chillie my Childreni started to shed. I left her to it and went to bed. When I got up I noticed that she had many pieces of skin and she had half her skin still on her. She had given up.
After soaking her in warm water I tried to assist her without much success. I donned rubber gloves and that helped. After a while she seemed to realize that I was trying to help her and started moving around my hands using the rubber gloves as a rough surface. It took a while but we finally got the shed skin off.
For future reference, is rubber gloves the way to go if I have to assist shedding in the future?
Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
