Help! New gecko owner.

[Stin]

Hello, my girlfriend recently purchased a leopard gecko and tonight while feeding we noticed this on her feet, is it shedding? We were told to watch for white caps around her toes!! Please help.

Pretty new also but looks like stuck shed, mine had some on his toes, advice I saw/used was put him in bowl with luke warm water covering the toes not too deep for about 10-15 mins then use a cotton bud/q-tip in direction of the shed to gently remove, make sure water isn’t too hot or get too cold

Soaking is great advice and hopefully the q-tip will then take the shed off. If not, use your fingernails. Hold the gecko near your stomach and put your shirttail over its head so it thinks it's hiding. If there's a little bleeding when the shed comes off it's OK.
