BEL in shed ?

Considering the lack of pigments I have a bit of trouble to see if she is in shed or not :rolleye2:

Now I noticed today that she isn't moving at all even though she is normally very active from 8pm on ...

Now the only thing which LOOKS like shed are the eyes ..

Would you say that those eyes look typically "shed ish" ? This is my first morph and my other snakes are a bit easier to figure out lol ...

She did eat on Sunday btw.

A pink belly is a real tell-tale sign of going into shed.

I'll have a look at her belly :rolleyes:

I find it really hard to tell on our Super Mohave BEL. She kinda turns pink all over at first. Even the opaque eyes are hard to judge since they're so light against the white background. Once she's really in shed her belly goes quite pink and is then noticable. By then she gets inactive and stays in her hide. Once she's out and about again, we will find the shed somewhere in her enclosure.

Its much easier to judge when the axanthic is going into shed. ;)

hmmmmmmmmmmm....I better take her for you so this doesnt happen again to you. :rolleyes:

lol - nice try ...

She is getting all "dirty" pink all over the place now - guess she is shedding after all. And she started soaking which she never done before .. Guess I need a bigger bowl lol - nice snake knot ...

I wish I was a snake. Then I could do that all day too :)
Looks a little less like squeezing into those old pair of jeans!

Speaking of squeezing .. Checked out a bumblebee in our local shop. He squeezed so hard himself into the (too small) bowl that the shop guy couldn't get him out anymore .. poor guy ..

Well, she is done :banana:

And even more importantly - she shed in one piece .. always nice :D

Just can't beat a humid hide

But she sure is gorgeous

She sure is .. just a bit concerned about her not having had a poo since I got her (a few weeks now) - I expected her to leave me a nasty surprise after shedding but she didn't ...

She doesn't look constipated though .... I think

She looks stunning! Don't worry, she will poop when she is ready!

This is why I wanna breed some lessers.. I absolutely love BEL's..

I could only imagine how gorgeous they are in person.

Beautiful animal. Good luck with the shed and general health.
