    BP?

    I shortened that insanely long thread title.

    Please search "eyecaps".

    Punctuation is your friend.

    Re: something wrong with my snake

    duller colors/pinkish belly/bluish eyes = first stage of shed cycle

    24-36 hours later...

    duller colors/pinkish belly/eyes clear up

    24-36 hours later....

    skin sheds off

    any questions?

    Re: something wrong with my snake

    When ever my ball pythons eyecaps stay on I can tell right after hes done shedding. Dpes he have accsess to enough water? Maybe his eyes are dried out or something I am not an expert by any means. I am just saying what i think.
