    Re: I need more BP's!

    You sure they both arent females? I know when my wife gets a friend that is around to much, they do all sorts of things at the exact same time and I end up having to deal with two crabs and get no attention for about a week........

    Re: I need more BP's!

    This is how they get you! I have been whining since we got Simon that I need more snakes, so I can stagger their feeding days and play with snakes every day of the week. I feel like I'm constantly accommodating my single snake's digestion and/or shedding cycles. If I had half a dozen, I'd be doing okay.

    Re: I need more BP's!

    The most I have ever had in shed at the same time is 3. Out of 5 snakes that is a pretty high percentage I guess. There might be something more scientific to it like the moon phase or constellation alignment (Just kidding of course)

    That's exactly it...then they need fed after they shed. I feel like a spoiled kid that can't have his toys! If I had one or two more, I think i'd shut up for a little while!

    Re: I need more BP's!

    Wow most of mine actually shed within a week of eachother this time. The BEL, both fires, the Bee, the vanilla, the butter and now one of the pastels is in blue. I didnt even know the Bee was going to shed.

    They must be like women living together,,, on the same cycle lol!

    Everytime i looked at them i found more skin. Maybe thats why i just bought 3 more balls!! Awesome! You just solved it for me! It was because those sneaky little :cens0r: had it planned all along! They got together and decided to all shed at once so i would go out and buy more BPs!

    Same here...unlucky for me, though, my family (I'm a freshman in h.s.) is not fond of my snake hobby...
    Dude, where did Bob go?

    Re: I need more BP's!

    I usually feed everyone on the same day so they usually always shed near around the same time
