    Introducing Igbo
    This kind of shows its poor condition.

    After its first feed with us, sorry for the mess but wanted to show and document his small size.

    Igbo is a mess right now, but but on the road to recovery.

    Yes, we did some soaks and he crawled through a wet wash cloth. Helped alot but he still looked pretty bad. Happy to say with all the info I found on here(and put into use), I woke up this morning to a nice full good shed. Can't wait to see him. He had a rough week of us trying to get his tank stable and deal with his bad skin, feeding, etc that I can finally feel like I can give him some peace and quiet for a bit.

    I had no idea he was going to through a shed since his skin was so bad and looked like he had just had one when we picked him up. Seeing that skin in one peice eyecaps and all made me feel like we did the right thing in bringing him into our home even though we completely unprepared. I was a bit nervous trying to get him stable. We still need better qualtiy equipment and decided on long term housing. But the info I got here let me get his tank up and running affordably, got me heading in the right direction.

    Hopefully the next time I post picture it will be of a completely different looking snake. Now concentrating on getting him to a healthy weight, oh and getting him sexed because I have no idea if he is a he or not.

    Opps meant to post this one to show how small he is. They previous owner(said he was three (I hope not), but when I had him looked at they said he looked more like a sickly two year old.
