    Shedding!!

    Hi, i have just read the great thread from christie about soaking, Is it necessary to soak after 24 hours or can the snake be given more time? My small Bp has been trying for 36 hours now and i am starting to get anxious.
    thanks

    If you're getting anxious go ahead and soak.

    I usually soak after 24 hours, because there's really no reason to wait. When my snakes have the occassional bad shed, I'd rather just get the shed off. Usually I know within that first day if it's going to come off or not. I wouldn't let it go for more than a couple days though if you want to hold off and wait.

    And thanks for the compliment, I'm glad the thread has been well received.
