Woo Hoo!!!

Score one for me!!! I recently adopted a 4 foot female Ball python at a Reptile Show. Her eyes were cloudy blue when I got her, so I knew a shed was soon to follow. Then I read online that if you give your snake a bath when their eyes turn clear, they should do a complete shed with in 24 hours. When her eyes cleared a few days later, I warmed the bath water, and put her in, let her swim around for maybe 10-15 minutes. Then I went to the petstore to pick up a small rat. I bring it home and she went right for it. WOO HOO, she eats!! So I go to bed that afternoon (I work nights) wake up, and there lying in the cage is a complete shed. WOO HOO. I was worried at first that something might be wrong with her for them to let this beauty get away for only $30. BUT NO!!! She's awesome!!!:D

Sweet! Glad she is working out so well for you! Where are the pics?

I certainly don't want to be the one to bring you down but you might want to get "her" sexed. $30 for a female that is possibly of breeding size (although we haven't heard how much she weighs or seen a picture yet) would be unlikely. Best of luck!
