Shedding issues
Without fail every time Ankou sheds, he will try to get it off himself for maybe half an hour or so? And then he hides somewhere and gives up. How long does it normally take them to shed? Is there a certain length of time i should wait before assisting him? His shed is not hard to remove. He started yesterday afternoon, and last night i picked him up to check on him and it just fell of super easy where I touched him. I feel like he is just being lazy. But i am worried about leaving the shed too long, as ive already had accidents with my leopard geckos that seemed to happen overnight. Thanks in advance!

Ok, that's good. Let him do what's natural. He knows best. I promise.
