My panther is shedding!

[WayneL333]

I woke up this morning and saw that my female panther was shedding for the first time! She's probably shed before, but this is the first time she's shed since I've owned her.

She looks pretty irritated by the dead skin, especially near her eyes. I wish I could help her peel it off. How long does the shedding process usually take?
Anyway, I thought I'd share...yay!

a few days. Just keep misting normally to help the skin come off. PM me if you need any other answers.

Also DO NOT pull off any skin that you think you should lol

good advice, and yes most of the time they actually are irritated, my chams are aggressive when they are shedding, but my male will actually rub against me like a cat when he is in shed mode, its kinda cool.

yeah, she's crawling around her cage like her feet are on fire. she's rubbing her head and her body on the branches and wood too.

Babies shed within few hours, adults take days

Noogie is taking days 2 shed. The last part, up at the spine, is shedding now, that is always last (he sheds in "patches").

Actually, all 4 of my guys are shedding right now
