Nothing like a pregnant female...I remember when I was pregnant with my son...no amount of food could satiate me and I gained 60 pounds! I probably would have eaten a fuzzy if you dangled it in front of me...ROFL!

More snakie fart updates!! It's my stress relief with all of this studying for nursing school...takes my mind off the stress and makes me laugh!

This has to be one of the funniest things I have seen and heard in my entire life. Snap was sitting on her tree and she kept doing the little yawning thing, so I thought something might have been wrong with her jaw or maybe something was stuck in her mouth. I opened the lid and slowly reached in and kept my hand coming from the side so it wouldn't scare her, and right as I touched her she darted to the other side of the tank, musking and she farted just a little bit it sounded pretty wet. Maybe I scared the poop and gas out of her. I love her so much.

Haha, I do. Snap is being a sweetie right now. I have her right now. She's just hanging with me and getting a neck rub.

snap-"ok five yards to the mouse hole, ten yards up the frame work, burrow through the insulation or through an air vent, any mouse(ice) and or pinky(s) must be swallowed on site, then freedom!

Squirt retained his shed for a second time. I'm a little worried about him, I feed them a nice varied diet, they always have fresh water and I mist them frequently if the humidity in my room is low. I kind of feel like I'm doing something wrong, there shouldn't be any reason for him to retain two sheds in a row. I feel so bad for him. He didn't fuss as much as last time, but he did musk me until he couldn't musk anymore. After I got it off of him, he coiled up in my hands. Ember also retained his eyecaps, but he had little "eyelashes" that helped me notice that they were still on. He didn't like me touching him and he gave me a little nip afterward, but that's okay. I helped him.

What is telling you it's a retained shed?
I'm just wondering what alerts you.
I know one of my snakes is having trouble when they only get chunks of shed off or I see folded skin along the body(only on young snakes)
I have snakes that shed a day after the opaque phase is over and some take a week's time.
I guess what I'm saying is time can't be used as a rule on shedding.

He had it off of his nose, but that was it. I found him with his head by the water dish laying on his side. His whole body was crinkly. He wasn't moving at all and it didn't look like he was breathing. When I picked him up he didn't move much but tensed up. When I started peeling it away from his face he started moving around a bit and kept musking. The shed itself was extremely thin and really hard to get off of him. It seemed to be glued to his skin. His eyes were also very dark. All of my northwesterns eyes are usually darker brown, but I know him apart from Thumbelina because his eyes are so bright. After the shed was off and he started breathing more, his eyes went back to being bright.
