skin desapered!!!!

This never happened before my male norm shaded skin today but there is no trace what's so ever of the skin I think he swallow it, has any one heard of this or had this append to? Is it normal for them to eat it?

He did took a rat right after put it in soo I'm nt too worry
Any on this will help out.

thank you for your time

How do you know he shed already if you haven't seen the skin? Are you sure he didn't just go from the opaque (blue) stage to the stage where they "clear up"?

If you did not actually see him shed and see the skin in there with him, then he has not shed yet. The eyes will go clear again right before they shed.

Two days ago I got him out an he was all pink on the belly and the eye caps were super milky and now they are clear I even put him next to luna my other girl and he looks so shiny :confused:

If he's clear now, then he will shed in the next few days to one week. He hasn't shed yet. Don't worry, he won't eat it. :)

Hmmmmm but he look so clear I think I'm gonna use a black light try to see any difference lol

I have a handful of snakes that will always eat during their shed cycle.

But to the OP, pink belly 2 days ago means that your snake has not shed yet. As mentioned, give it 3-7 days.

I agree with everyone else...mine usually takes 5-7 days after blue to shed.

If you're suspecting he snuck one in though, check the cage thouroughly. I've been checking mine for days now and picked him up today to give him a once-over and what do you know, he's bright and shiny and sitting on top of his shed in his cave. :-/

I said he won't eat it as in he will not eat his skin that he has shed. Which is what the OP had worried had happened. My Pin and my female both eat their meals during shed as well.

Yeah I think soo too I glad every one here is soo good and helpful ill just give him some time
Thanks for the help :gj:
