It really works!
Wow this stuff works wonderfully! I am a new snake owner here, a few weeks ago I adopted my first baby corn snake. All was well, Nagini ate like a champ, had no problem coming to my and climbing on my hands, active, healthy, and I was so happy. Until, she went into her first shed with me a few days ago. Monday morning, she got her head and eyes off just fine, but that was it, I waited 24 hours in hopes she would finish her shed. From there, it was all coming off in bits and pieces, and I wasn’t sure what to do. I tried bathing her, running her through damp towels in my hands, providing moist hides for her, and still only about a third of her body had shed, and it came off in maybe 15 pieces. I didn’t want to stress here out anymore than I already had trying to help her along. So, I looked into a shedding aid, and this was seemingly the best one for the price I found, and I could have it in just a couple days with prime. Here we are Thursday, half of her body still hasn’t shed, and I just received this in the mail an hour ago, I took her out and liberally sprayed the bottom half of her body and massaged it in a little bit, and put her back in her enclosure. NOT 15 MINUTES LATER the rest of her shed came off in one big piece, even the tail tip! My goodness, I am so happy I decided to purchase this, and I will continue using as a monthly treatment, even if her sheds improve I will continue to use this stuff as a preventative and to condition her. YAY! If you are hesitant about buying, let me tell you, this stuff is soooo worth it! I usually feed her Wednesdays, but I wanted to wait until she finished shedding. Here Thursday afternoon after she finished, I went ahead and fed her, and it was a successful feed.

life saver!!
instantly loosened tough shed build up (gently!) off my leopard geckos toes!! he’s hates soaking and has not been letting me touch his toes due to the discomfort 🙁 i sprayed this on him, let sit for a few minutes, and was able to gently get the shed off with a cotton swab. i thought i was going to need to contact a vet. thank you zoomed!!!

Works Great!
If your snake has trouble with retained eye caps, or issues shedding around their mouth, nose or vent, please try this!! It works wonders and it’s easy to use.

Works surprisingly well
I have a leopard gecko that I rescued a few years ago. He had a history of malnutrition, and it manifested in difficult sheds. He had lost a few toes from this with his previous owner. Even though his health is back to 100%, he still had trouble shedding. Every month, when he shed it was multiple warm water baths, que tips, etc. I was told by vets that the shed aids don’t do more than water, but after two years of this, I wanted to try it anyways. I bought the shed aid, and it actually did help. Now, all I do is spray my gecko before he sheds, and then spray any left over skin after. He sheds much easier, and I rarely have to help him at all. This is really worth it. I am not sure if it would work for every animal or every breed, but it really does help my leopard gecko, he is much happier.

Saved our gecko. And our auto insurance.
So we inherited a gecko from our son, who bought it then didnât want to take care of it.We had no idea how to care for it and sadly, made his life miserable for awhile. We had nowhere near enough heat, moisture or hides. Having never owned a lizard of any kind, we thought his lethargic nature was normal.We also knew nothing about their shed.So imagine our surprise when suddenly our gecko starts turning grey and shedding. 5 weeks later he had still not sluffed off his shed and it was hard and crusted over.So we began to read and learn how to better care for him and realized that this is not normal. He was literally skin and bones, unable to eat or see because of the thickness of his shed.As we looked closer, it became apparent that he actually had multiple layers of shed that had never properly loosed.This issue was compounded by lack of moisture, lack of proper heat, lack of proper hide and overall nutrition and environment. We quickly fixed all of that and orders this product.It only took about 20 sprays of this miracle product to completely loosen and release almost 6 weld of shed. Sadly, he did lose a toe.Today our gecko is happy and active and curious and friendly. He still had difficulty shedding, but he is getting better at it. We use this sparingly to help him along and it does the trick in a few focused sprays. It does not irritate our geckos skin, face or eyes. He remains very calm and stress free if we have to administer any of this.We are very happy with it. Iâm quite certain it saved our gecko from our lack of education on how to care for him.We will never be without it.

I love that this product is so safe that you can …
I bought this product for our leopard gecko after reading previous positive amazon reviews. We recently found a female gecko right outside our door and have been nourishing her to a healthy weight…you could tell that she had escaped her previous owner and had been on the run for awhile. We experienced her 2nd shed thus far and both times she just can’t get the stuck shed skin off of her feet. Spraying this product starting a few days just before she sheds does help soften and hydrate but after she sheds we have to do a combination of this product and soaking her in a warm bath (water just covering her legs) to soften the skin enough to remove. In my opinion, I love that this product is so safe that you can even spray it directly on their eye caps and it does moisturize and gives a nice sheen.

My snake had stuck shed in spots. This helped it fall off.

i rescued a bearded dragon who had deep, painful layers of stuck shed. this product after a good few sprays helped to loosen the shed, and even though the removal did hurt a tad, he was totally relaxed and seemed glad afterwards! the buildup was probably years old, and really helped in a quick and efficient removal. the bottle is only small, but for how effective it is, you wouldnât need any more. total quality, no smell and great value for money. thank you!

This spray is absolutely amazing. I have a leopard gecko that had a bad shed so I decided to try this product. I read some reviews prior to reciving this and saw that some were saying that giving your gecko a bath is probably just as effective or even more effective than using this spray, which might be true, however if you have a gecko that happens to get unbelievably stressed even stepping a foot in water (like my gecko) this spray is a life-saver. After feeding I sprayed a bit of it on him, he wasn’t too happy with it but there was no sign of stress or fear, he was mainly just annoyed. The day after spraying it on he had managed to shed without any issues. It was a huge relief that the product actually worked this well since it spares both me and my leopard gecko the stress of giving him a bath.On a different note, I have to say that I’ve never recived a product as quikly as this one, it only took around 2 days for it to get delivered which I find to be very impressive.
