Ok, so tried Freddie on a pinkie today, with no luck. However, I’m not too concerned, as I think he is about to shed! His colouring is very dull especially at the bottom half of him (near his tail) and he was rubbing his wee nose against the side of his faun quite a bit this morning. Hopefully everything goes ok and it comes off in one piece!

Fingers crossed it a good one you can usually tell by their belly checkers, if they look really dull

Yeah his belly def looks darker than it was! And looking at pics, he looks more brown than orangy now. Hopefully it won't take too long till it's done!

Yeah it will be the first time with me,I haven't had him out as I have been leaving him to settle in,and he's been hiding a lot,so not sure where about in the process he is! He is deaf fuller though,and lots of rubbing his nose! I'm excited but nervous,just hoping it all goes well for the wee guy
