Hi guys
Just a quick bit of info needed. I'm aware snakes shed at iregular intervals. But my variable king shed about 3 weeks ago. Looking at his belly now its gone slightly milky again, how it was maybe 2 weeks before the previous shed. Would 5 weeks between sheds be odd.
He's really settled in now. Feeds on 2 fuzzy mice every week (and I think he's take more - maybe this isnt enough for a 2' 8 king !??) is ultra handleable and I've now started seeing him out and about in his viv a lot more.
Anyway, if anyone could 'shed' some light on this shedding business that would be fab...
Many thanks
Mat |
