Just noticed that Corey's girl (sorry she's still nameless) was shedding when I woke up this morning and so took a few snaps. It was a good full shed and is all off and eaten now  |

Thanks mate I would have gotten her out for a couple of shots in her new skin but she went to sleep after shedding. |

Those are great photos! I still haven't seen my lot shed yet though I'm sure they do it.  _________________

It looks so rubbery and stretchy when they do it, I don't know how they manage to eat it at all. |

I love watching them (and other geckos i've seen do it) eat their skin, its fasinating. The feet are the best bit. |
