My baby blue

Woo Hoo!
Augie ate on Wednesday, and today when I looked in on him he was fully in blue!!!!!
Humidity was at 60%....misted just now to give him a little extra.

Can't wait to see his new skin! I am hoping he will be light, bright, and lemony again!

his eyes are clearing today....so far so good!

I decided not to offer any food until this is over....is that the right approach?

poor little guy - he seemed so mopey when he was blue! today he's poking his head out a bit and that makes me feel better :P

Even if some don't eat during shed, I offer food to all of mine regardless and very rarely have a refusal.

I usually wait till after a shed to offer again. Its personal choice and depends on the snake. Some will eat and some won't during their sheds.

I am using paper towels for bedding in his tub.

Well, he has not shed yet but he has cleared quite a bit.
Yesterday was feeding day but he was in his hide showing no interest.

TODAY he was acting like his old self, in his 'feed me' posture.
I put a frozen mouse on top of his tub to see if he shows interest (my normal procedure) and he started yawning and reaching for the smell.
So, I am now thawing the mouse in hot water to give him :)

If I'm lucky he will eat today and shed tomorrow :)

he just ate :carrot:
