Use the instructions above, or if you can do so gently and carefully, try to help it "roll" back. Often times with stuck tail shed, just getting it wet is enough to allow it to come right off as she moves through your fingers. @Samandmel: I know this is a bit late of a response, but you are correct-if the tail still has some old skin on it, you need to get it off.

The humidity is great, and the heat is where it is suspose to be. But I noticed she has not been climbing, nore as active as usual. Which I know is a sign of shedding. Plus she is yawning, and somewhat aggressive. Which we are leaving her alone. But today I noticed that she is rolling her head around in her house, and all over the floor. It kind of reminds me of a dog with a flea. Is this the very starting point of shedding, or is there something else going on? Please write back. Thank you for your time!!
