Sheading skin

[chameleonman57]

My female veiled is sheading right now and I was wondering if the skin should come right off in a couple of days. When I first got her she was sheading but now she isn't and you can see where the old skin starts and where the new skin is. I've tried the Tropical Mist by Zilla and the humidity is around 50%to 60% and lately raised it to 70%. Is there something wrong or is she just taking her time doing it.

This should not be necessary. Lots of live plants and high humidity are all it should take. My chameleon rubs against his biovines to get it off. Does she have something to scrub herself against?

My chameleon is so lazy and doesn't even come close to doing anything like that. Should I be worried that she isn't trying to get it off.

I would keep the humidity high during the day and higher than normal (not too high) at night. All chams are different so she might or might not try to. You could put plants in her way on her branches so she has to climb through them and possibly rub it off.

I'll try that. Thanks
