My beardie has been working on shedding for quite some time now, and certain areas have refused to shed. All through her shedding process I've been soaking and misting her, but there are some patches on her tail and one stubborn toe that don't seem to want to shed. Is there anything I can do to induce shedding, or can nothing be done about this?

how long has it been since he started to shed. some parts always take longer than others like the tip of the tail and especially the feet. just give it some time. if it is taking to long (a week after the complete shed) then there is a spray you can buy to help the process.

My beardie has recently had a shedding problem too (one whole month) just give it time you are obviously doing every thing right. keep doing it and never pull the scales off as this will damage the new ones. also if you are in the southern hemisphere like me and it's your winter then you also have to think that since its cold you're lizard wont move around as much therefore the skin wont rub off as much also keep a small pond of water in the tank to provide humidity and a bath

Check your husbandry--is the heat and UVB correct? Here is some useful info:
