Does your Ball Python also shed in a "ball" ?

Wondering if this shedding feature also applies to any other snake species ? My bp, at least, sheds in a knot, or "ball.." I've yet to see him in the act, but I imagine he helps himself shed by literally tying himself in a knot to acquire friction.....

Ditto. Like rolling a sock off - it all ends up rolled up into a ball. Then I get to unroll it to make sure it's intact.

Mine shed in a perfect knot once...

Usually. Once in a while I get a shed that's laid out.

Dave

ends up in a little ball yes.

Mine usually end up looking like a very impressive new condom.

We have Val's first shed with us that she left intact but all the other sheds have ended up in balls. Glad the first one was special lol I almost find she's a bit crabby about the balls because they end up in her rock hide with her and when I get them out she's a bit tense, never strikes just gives unhappy vibes lol

Mine all look like that, except there's usually a poop in there somewhere....
