Hello.

I just joined because I'm looking after a friend's snake for a couple of months. I've never had a snake before, so this is a total learning curve.

He's a year-old 2ft checkered garter called Boskov, really smart and affectionate, almost kitten-like, and I'm going to have real problems giving him back

I think he might be due for a shed, so I'm all nervous (read paranoid). Probably more because he's not mine and I'd hate to give him back with a bit of his tail missing or some other horrible thing, the thought of which totally freaks me out!

Anyway, I'll probably be here for advice.
