Also I don’t know if the boy is bullying her I don’t think he is but they sleep together and seem fine he just pulled off some skin when she was shedding and chased her once but didn’t try to hurt her

I am very sorry but you have not provided enough information for us to help you. What types of animal are you referring to? It just states reptile: are you talking about geckos, snakes, bearded dragons, turtles.........??? Do you have some photos of the skin that was pulled off? Please post again with more information and photos. Thank you.
