Question ok thanks, i might have to try misting with a water bottle because i put her in warm water in the bath tub and she was not liking the water very much, she did everything to get away from the water. Oh if the cap doesnt come off could that become a hazard to the snake?

Question -
my red tail still has one eye cap left from her shed. it is a very silvery looking color, how long will it take for it to eventually fall off?
Answer -
hey josh,
dont pull it off , first give him or her a bowl big enough to soak in and or mist the face real good with a new or sterile water bottle it should come off withen a day or two of doing this a few times a day if not in two or three days let me know .
thanks and good luck

Answer Hey Josh,
yes use the mist bottle for sure , it can become an irritant to the pupil and also cause damage to the eye if stuck over to long, is there any part of the old skin lifted enough to get tweezers on it? if so soak real good a couple of times within an hour and on the 3rd time grab the loose piease and Very Gently pull towards the snakes nose. if this makes you nervous dont be shy about having your local vet help you or a knowledgeble reptile store.let me know how you make out .
