    ... Still not shed. Looks like her chin is started but she has no will to remove it her self. I'm going to take some pictures, get her shed off even if she hates me for it. Then take more pictures.

    Re: My snake log

    I would suggest trying a shed box...maybe that will get it started and then you can help her if she needs it. The shed could be constricting her breathing a bit...or it may just be that the nares are blocked by skin...I have seen this in my snakes before a shed. If her skin is wrinkling...I would try to get that shed off. Good luck and keep us posted.

    Re: My snake log

    I got it!!!

    This was her yesterday before she ate the small worm chunk, Can see how thin she is n a small fold of skin when she curled little tighter. (oh and yes I bought her with a 'curly tail')

    This picture explains itself lol

    Here I had grabbed hold of the loose skin on top of her neck, she did a 'death roll' lol her head piece came off pretty good just left this...

    Her we got started, I held onto the skin n she did all the work.

    Checking out her old skin. She seemed to feel... free n more flexible... Moved faster after this was off.

    Re: My snake log

    Here I got off the eye cap n the surrounding skin. Was really easy to get off with the little extra skin. I just used my nail after trapping her head in my fingers so she couldn't move... I literally picked her nose as that's where the skin stuck lol then grabbed it n gently pulled it off.
    (don't mind the dot on my finger tip... I thought is was a good idea to run a drill into my finger, Its a blood blister)

    Re: My snake log

    Well I do believe its FEEDING TIME lol Lets see o the menu is... WORMS N MICE!


    Little Santa Cruz seems active n wanting to eat now that she has had a day of 'rest' after my pestering her n getting her shed off.
    Everyone else is cruising around n looking at me like I'm a terrible waitress and they aren't going to leave me a tip. Nope I think for making them wait I'll get poop in water. LOL


    Time to chop frozen pinkies, mix in some chopped worms, dash of water.... TAAH DAAAH!!! Goulash is served!

    She ate! One small worm n this worm chunk
