Hello all :)

Tehya has been "shedding" for well over a week now, it's probably closer to two weeks, she's still dull and every morning I inspect her and her surroundings and there's still no skin, her eyes have never clouded over either is this the sign of a problem?

Relax about the shedding, your snake will do it in its own time and the humidity is definitley high enough.
As for eating, Sylar is going through a similar phase, he hasn't eaten for 23 days and I will be trying him again tomorrow

I have checked humidity again and it's still reading between 60-65% humidity and that is with just her bowl of water and a practically dried up moss hide in there. She has a piece of cork bark which is vertical in her faunarium that she can rub against, I daren't add more moist moss to her hide because the humidity will go higher still.

I am also hoping that she's hungry tonight, as today will be the 29th day that she hasn't eaten if she leaves her pinky again

if she's struggling you could always add a damp hide for her to use if she wants to, also is there anything in her viv for her to actually rub against to help remove the shedding layer?
jono2411 Posted - 11/08/2009 : 18:15:14
yeah, just give it time... there are no set rules to this kind of thing...

I wouldn't go any higher than that. If it gets too humid you could be risking a R.I (respiratory infection).

Just be patient- I'm sure he'll shed soon

Humidity is 65% at present, do I need even more? I can put fresh damp moss in the moss hide if that makes things better?

Have you increased the humidity?
