My snake has a drinking problem...I think.
Hi,
Quick question. I never EVER see my snake drink or soak and it's skin seems wrinkled. Its second to last shed came off in one piece, but I woke up this morning to find shed pieces of skin all over her tank instead of 1 piece. The shed is entirely off though, as far as I could see. She was in her hide though, so I only took a quick look. I'm going to go get a new thermometer/humidity monitor. Why doesn't my snake drink, or is it just that I don't see it ever? Should my snake have wrinkles at its bends?
Ugh! Thank you.

Re: My snake has a drinking problem...I think.
Yes, you probably don't see her drink. They mostly take a drink right after feeding. If your having shed problems, tell us what the humidity is. You have a digital hygrometer/thermometer right?? It's best in these situations to have one so you can control their enviroment exactly. If you don't have one, give her a misting of water in her tank once a day, and go buy a digital hygrometer from walmart for 11.00$.
Oh yea, what kind of snake do you have? I noticed this is in general Herp. Let me know thnx. ;)
