My little mojave that i believed to have had mites has shed today but there's a couple of problems 1st one is he has shed skin left stuck to his tail do i just soak it an leave it a couple days and leave him to it to see if he gets it off or do i try bathing it and removing it myself?
Second one is this
it looks as though he's lost a scale during shedding and before he went into shed it looked like a little retained shed in the same spot so could have happened to him before what do you think and should i do anything with it?
He is just a small boy about 120g or so so the damage is very small |

I'd pop him on paper till it heals (keep it clean)
That's if he's not on paper
And I was recommend savlon when I have a royal with nose rub
I'd also try and remove the shed on the tail especially the tip
As you don't want it to start shrinking and constrict the tail tip |

| The scale will grow back fairly quickly. It probably wouldn`t be a bad idea to raise your humidity a little as well to help with the next couple of times he sheds. |
