Hershal just got done sheding - looks like a new lizard!

Postby BlueyBabe » Sat Feb 16, 2008 9:50 am

Hey everyone!

Hershal just got done sheding this morning. Luckly I hade my camera close by .... so i snapped a few shots!

For some reason Hershal's eyes and outer mouth are all cleared up! Looks like a whole diffirent skink now ... I wounder why this happened ..?? Cause before his eyes were closed shut all the time. Now they are very very clear. His mouth has NO buld up either ...

His face up close:

Very nice. He looks very pretty after his shed. Keep a good watch on his eyes to see if the buildup starts to return. Maybe you can figure out what was causing it. And if it doesn't return, great!
