Improper shedding, or dysecdysis, in iguanas can indicate husbandry issues, such as incorrect humidity, improper temperatures, nutritional deficiencies (especially Vitamin A), or underlying infections. A dull appearance could also be related to these factors. Ensure your enclosure's temperature and humidity are optimal for an iguana and that its diet is well-balanced. If these are correct and the problem persists, a reptile-savvy veterinarian should assess your iguana to rule out medical causes. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
