    Shedding question

    I've seen all kind of photos of sheds that are all in one piece... so is it abnormal for it to come off in pieces?

    My friend (who is looking after Wheatley for now) just sent me this:



    (Sorry for the quality... it was a screenshot of a video of her making the snake-finger talking...)

    Needs higher humidity. What % does your humidity usually stay at and how do you measure it?

    I haven't gotten a hydrometer yet (waiting to purchase a digital one.) but I've kept it pretty fluid.

    My friend on the other hand, I have no idea. I had just dropped him off in the middle of the night yesterday.

    A good shed is a FULL shed (no stuck shed) whether it is in one or several pieces.

    ^ What she said. It's fine if it comes off in pieces, so long as none of those pieces remain on the snake. The last time my pastel shed it was in several pieces, but it all came off. She's doing just fine.
