Default Baby beardie shedding

I just noticed my baby beardie is shedding and its sort of hanging off him, what do I do ? do I just leave it to come off its self or do i pull it off ?
Do i spray him ?
Why do they shed ? is it that they are growing? as he does seem to have grown in a week he loves his crickets and is greedy little thing lol.

He`s looking like batman at the moment lol.

Smile shedding dragons

hi there welsh dragon
answer to your question just let the babies get their own skin off this is their way of growing and no you dont have to spray them they will use the logs and rock to get rid of the skin.
