Question

1. lives on paper towel

2. lives alone

3. humid 65-75

Answer 1

just use some tweezers and pull the skin off gently

Answer 2

Keep spraying him maybe get some shedding aid you can buy it from any good reptile store, and i wouldn't keep it on paper towels either, I would use wood bark for reptile's.

Answer 3

Well just keep misting the toes but also the temperature should be about room temperature on the cool side and 80-90 on the warm side.

Answer 4

From what I've read the best thing to do is soak them in tepid water for about 15 minutes.  That gives the skin a chance to loosen up.  You don't want to just rip the dry skin right off.  Easy way to lose an appendage!  It may take a few days(soak each day) for it to loosen up enough to come off without much trouble.  Also, if you work with him on a daily basis or at least every other day he should eventually get to the point that he doesn't mind being held.  Handle him often and he'll get used to it. Just make sure its in a confined space and he doesn't have far to fall; mine is a bit of a daredevil herself.

Answer 5

If the skin still doesn't come off, and if he starts biting at his toes, then you have to intervene.  Use tweezers and do your best to remove it, or else your gecko will chew his toes off.  Try making a wet hut for your lizard, moist vermiculite or a wet paper towel with some kind of lid on top so that he can shed in there.  Keep misting, and keep the humidity up.  

Baby geckos are very skittish and it will be hard to hold for a while, until it gets used to handling.
