I missed the whole thing!!
So, i was really nervous about Apollo shedding this time. Since, she went into shed a week after we got her, it was so terrible. I've been waiting a week. I've been checking on her constantly. I woke up this morning and.........
Look at those beautiful colors. (Forgive my bad camer skills)

Perfect shed!!! Yeah!!! Eye caps and everything. All in one whole piece.:banana:

This is her saying, "You dork. Do I come and pull the roof off of your house when you're sleeping!!" She wasn't happy with me at all, but she's so beautiful I couldn't resist.

That's my story. All my paceing the floor, and worrying. I missed the whole thing. At least I can be more relaxed for all the other sheds. I hope. :oops:

What!! mine must be lazy then. she never came out of her hide. She went from hot to cold as need, but I haven't seen her come out in 4 days. She even shed in there.

as soon as my guys eyes go from blue to clear i up the humidity to around 80% and toss in some cork wood. he usually uses it to shed. so if im home i can watch im...
speaking of shed. im waiting for my tree boa to shed so i can xfer her to a pillow case and take her home.. she keeps trying to eat my arm she is all hazy. so the place that ordered her for me is keeping her in the back because no one wants to touch her till she clears up HAHA

Yay!! that's awesome!! :D My baby's actually never shed in one complete piece. It's always one big piece and then a smaller one from down by her tail :rolleyes: But at least she gets it all off! Seems like all balls have their own technique :P Since this shed was a success, just do what you did the same way next time and you shouldn't have to worry. It is hard not to though I know :)
I love that pic of her too by the way!! She has some very pretty markings!! :D
Re: I missed the whole thing!!
yeah she does,i was thinking the same. Mine sheds in two pieces too.
Re: I missed the whole thing!!
Thanks guys. I couldn't believe how perfect it was either. I'm sure they won't all be like that. It was all tucked next to her in the hide. I can't wait to go home after work, and actually be able to get her out. I'm going to try and get some better pictures. I was in a hurry this morning, and almost late for work. :(
