Shedding Problem

[Mariekey29]

My little guy is having some issues with this shed. He's been trying to shed for 9 days now and only the skin on his upper back has actually shed off. Usually the day after he starts shedding he's completely done. Two days max. Nothing has changed in his habitat. Humidity stays around 60-65 and he even sits under the mister nozzles when they spray sometimes. Is it ok for it to be taking this long? Is there anything I can do to help the rest come off? Sorry, not the best pics but he can be a pain in the butt when it comes to camera time.

When the veiled cham gets older,he can start peeling in the different places not all at once compare with the younger veiled male cham,so it is normal,if I were u ,just mist more often,and watch him strip more skin off like he is entertaining you,and sometimes he does eat his own skin,so if u see that happen,dont be too surprised.

Ok, thanks. I was just a little concerned because it's never taken him this long before and he is my first ever cham. I've seen him eat the shed from his face before lol. He'll be 7 months old next week so I guess things will be getting a bit different with him.
