Poor little girl

This is the snake that is at the store that they have been force feeding. They have stopped force feeding her and are going to wait longer before they offer the food. I havent heard anything yet on when I will be able to get her... so I took some pictures of her with my camera phone to share...

The 3rd picture down is showing her one eye cap that hadnt come off with her last horrible shed. Is it ok to leave it? Or should I do something to get it off.

I don't know much about removing eye caps so I will leave that to the more experienced.

What a nice little snake! Why is it that you can't take her home right away? She is at a store right? They don't seem to be doing a very good job taking care of her. You would think they would want to give the problem snake away to someone who is willing to deal with her. :/

Great looking snake. Aside from the problems she is having, she looks very alert and curious!

To remove an eyecap you can buy the rubber thumb caps that they sell at office supply places. Place it over your thumb and gently gently roll it over the eye front to back, that should take care of it.

Edited..Thanks for catching that!

Moist cotton ball will do the same thing.

can't you also just take a q-tip (moist I think) and do the same? Or just wait for it to come off in her next shed. I have read on here they can last up to 3 and if they don't come off then to do something.
