Our first shed :)

[RedSidedSPR]

My flame is 10 inches. His most recent shed was easily 15inces. You gotta know who's getting ready to shed. Dull skin, blue eyes....

Check it out. My Anery, 2 days before shed, and after.

Yeah, we knew that. We have a check on get the each snake when ever we get the opportunity. Binky's eye's never clouded and we have had Bethan for less that 48hrs and her eyes were not cloudy either so we really didn't see it coming. Oh well, it's academic now.

The eyes clear up the day before they shed.

Albinos (like Binky) don't get blue eyes, I don't know how to explain it cause Ive never seen it, but it's just a different shade of pink, maybe more purple.

That's part of the reason we think it was Bethan. We would have missed the change of eyes. Binky's eyes have been ruby sparkly red constatly. I was never in doubt that it wasn't Binky. The skin was too small.

On an unrealated note Chris... You appear to be describing yourself as female in your sig...

"0.1.0 - Homo sapiens called Chris"

Now that was an embarassing typo.

Useful to know, I'd not read about albinos eyes not going blue, but it makes perfect sense.
Bethan threw me a bit as she is new and I'd not established a baseline for her colours, so the only clue was that she had some loose threads of skin yesterday. We'll get to know these babies soon enough. I spend long enough looking at them when I should be working...

If there's skin still on the snake you should get it off.

Chris spent time this afternoon with a bowl of warm water. she is flakey skin free.

Good news and a happier snake.

She's not eating still and is looking a bit baggy skinned. I'm worrying.
