I have a bearded dragon. I'm just wondering what would happen if I pealed off his skin while he is shedding?

I think that would be like peeling off a sunburn too early. believe me, it was NOT fun. It burned like H#LL!! You can put it in warm water to help it peel faster though.

You could damage the new scales growing under it. Let it come off by itself. Keep the dragon misted daily and bathed weekly to assist with shedding.
