shedproblem

my blood still has some skin stuck to him is there any other way besides soaking him in water to help get the skin off? he has tagged me twice now :) he is normally very nice but not today i think im making em mad when im trying to help him.

After a bit of a soak I would let him slither through a towel. Less chance of you getting tagged and should come off pretty easily. Good luck

Your only option is to soak. Soak for at least an hour in 86 degree or so water. That way when you go to help assist her in getting it off it comes right off.

If your worried about getting tagged, go get some gloves. These snakes cant have stuck sheds as youngsters. They shed so sparingly and the growth between them is enough for the stuck shed to cause problems.

Really keep an eye on your husbandry. An incomplete shed can be a sign of your husbandry being off. Whats your humidity on a daily basis? During shed? How often are you offering fresh water?

How long have you had this snake? I notice the first shed or two with new animals can be bad due to stress also.

Hope this helps.
