    Eye problem
    Hi I recently bought a ball python back in December he’s been so good and friendly he just recently had his first shed with me it wasn’t good so i bought shed ease and it came off except on his head he let me help peel most of it off I’m worried his eye is still covered thoughwhich I believe is leading to aggression . I’ve posted a picture in my gallery cause I was unsure how to upload on here

    That bit of skin and any retained eye caps can be easily sorted .. get a very damp , rough textured towel and wrap the snake up in it - let the snake slither around as long as possible.. when it’s head pops out just cover it up again with the excess towel ..as it’s slithering around you should apply very gentle pressure to the head region and after a while the skin and eye caps will just come off nice and gently ON the towel .


    Just don’t try pulling at the skin or using any kind of TAPE !!
