Yes. It is a little shedding. Mine get it every once on a while. I try to soak a little more during that time. As long as there are no noticeably raw or open looking spots it is ok.

Yes, he's just shedding. Unlike snakes or frogs, they shed in pecies. Mine sheds for a couple weeks every couple months. It's good to keep him hydrated, it helps a bit.
