Feet not shedding

My male Panther's leg began to shedding the other week and when it started on his palm only a few parts came off. The last time he shead his full body the palms of his feet dindnt peel off. Now 3/4 of his palms are not shedded at all and one is partially. Is this anything to worry about? I know when they get older they ahead in sections, but I have also noticed he sometimes rest on a branch and only holds on with 2/3 feet. Could that be a sign of discomfort or is he just resting his legs?

Try soaking it in a warm, shallow bath. That might loosen the skin. If not, bring him to a vet before it gets any worse, it could get shriveled up and need to be amputated. But it doesn't seem bad looking now so just wait and see.
 
I've tried giving him a bath and a shower and he tries to get as far from the water as he can. so is there any other ways or should i make him take one?
 
Shower time

Take him in the shower get him good and soaked down then take a soft bristle toothbrush to his feet if he'll let you my Chams look forward to it . GL
 
Could it be a callus of some type they are a yellowish brown intried giving him a little bath but he kept trying to crawl out and escape. I also tried the toothbrush and he kept attempting to climb on it. How do you get yours to sit still?
 
Ask a vet just in case. Him standing still takes a long time, so you shouldn't expect him to stay still, especially if you are touching him.
 
Toothbrush

It's just bout impossible to get them to stay still , I take him in the shower he sits on my hand and I take my time when he grabs a finger I go at it with the brush not easy but important to get leftover skin off , had an issue with a female her feet swelled up it was sad to see and hard to treat good luck
and be patient.
