belly problem

i have spoken to alot of them 15-20 different booths i bought two last show in daytona fl from the same person and he had them both together in display and at his store i went to buy the hide boxes and lights and he told me i didnt need to buy two that i could keep the males together

so would i i have alot invested i did remove them from the room as all the others but it was initially in with the one ... i seperated it when i first noticed the problem then put them back after talking to the vet....they have been together for 2-3 months now and no signs on the other one they eat regularly and the belly one acts fine ... im just totally confused i shed him myself before it happened ..which i have done time to time with my other ones and after that about a week is when i noticed it ..it seems to be coming off with this shed but cant be sure till he is done

in that case, i wish you all the best with your snakes and breedings. sounds like you have everything working fine... so i'll go into some other threads where people need some assistance.

sorry i haven't left yet... you and i were posting at the same time LOL

what does this mean? i've never done this... how's it done?

he didnt shed all the way so i soaked him and gently rubbed the remaining shed off ....i have done this in the past so i knew what i was doing ...but maybe i irratated some dry skin ..i was hopping someone else had seen this before
