Blue tounge help

[Jpetrik]

Hi guys just got my blue tounge out to feed him some snails and I noticed the underneath of his tait has gone a white grey colour and its pinkish colour stomach has faded greatly and must of happened in the last day or two does anyone know what could cause this?

he most likely could be getting ready to shed

have u put it on a new substrate?

i reckon its in shed though

 

[Jpetrik]

Same substrate I've always used aspin snake bedding he loves the stuff

mine used to do that just before shedding. Has his back gone really dull?

 

[Jpetrik]

Yeah dull as in from brown to grey he seems 100% besides the dis coloration

you'll find over the next few days he will shed. Make sure his toes and ear plug shedd properly. When l had digger (bluey) he would shed and then eat it. Sometimes there would be no shed whatsoever in the enclosure. He would also get a little grumpy and go off his food just before shedding.

Yeah mine goes off his food when shedding for about a week but his only shed twice since I've had him so I might have just missed it and his always shed his toes properly him self and I make sure I collect the scales a couple of times a day to make sure his not eating, my pink tounge has never tried to eat her scales
