    skin concern

    My snake's skin suddenly looks a little loose. I've had her for about three weeks and she felt fine and healthy. Her eyes turned blue a couple of days ago so she is going to shed soon. Is this loose skin before a shed normal? Her cages temps are correct and she ate fine last week.

    Glad to hear it! They have a tendancy to make us a little neurotic. I'm back to checking my temps almost 4-5 times a day(sometimes more ), and they always fine but I just keep doing it....

    the loose appearing skin is normal. my brothers ball pythons do that before they shed.
