shedding problem

Hiya!One of my baby leos(bout 1-2 months now)is having trouble shedding on his fingers.He sat in the humid hide for a coupple days off and on but he couldnt get that little bit off.Well it seems he started biting at it and it looks like he may have ripped off a peice of his finger.I can see the blood.Should i put any neosporin on it or anything?Any help would be appreciated.thanks a lot.

Sometimes Leos will do that, and its fine. he's just one finger less! Clean it off a bit and remove any extra skin that may be attached, then yes dress the wound with a small dab of neo. If hes not already, put him on paper towel because otherwise sand will just get caked onto that wound.

phew, im glad to hear its not a problem.thanks a lot.

He will be fine for the simple fact that you care enough to notice it He will heal just make sure all the skin is off.

ive had two leos that lost a couple digits but havent had a problem since ive given them moist hides 100 percent of the time. to help Bertha out ive set her in a tub with 1/4 inch or so of water for a little while then carefully rub her digit till the skin comes off. sometimes i stop and put her back to soak and try again. eventually it loosens up and comes off.

If you notice your little leo (or even an adult for that matter) is having trouble sloughing the skin around his/her toes, do what Vinny suggested above. I generally get a small tub of luke warm water and let the geckos sit in that for a minute or two to soften the skin, and then I carefully remove the excess skin with tweezers or my fingernails.

As for missing toes, it doesn't really affect your gecko that badly. I've got a few adults with missing toes and it doesn't seem to bother them.
