    How long before they shed when their eyes turn like this?



    She has been grumpy and I havent found any shed yet, this pic was taken last Saturday, when do you think she will shed?
    Tomorrow is feeding time as well, should I feed her tom or skip it?

    depends on individual python. He should clear in 3-7 days then after he clear between 2-5 days he should Shed... If You feed live i strongly recommend skip a meal till he shed..
    If You feed F/T you can fry offer food.
    Hope that's helps...

    As said, probably 3-5 days after the cloudy phase, you will see a shed.

    You can offer food while in shed. Some will take, some won't. But there's no harm in offering...

    I lifted her hide today and she was hissing, seemed very cranky. I will try to offer her a live fuzzy rat but my question is, how do I get her out of her tank into the feeding bin when she is that cranky

    Just reach in and pick her up. Being bitten and hissed at is part of owning snakes, but I'm willing to bet she just wants you to leave her alone so she's hissing and will most likely ball up if you touch her.

    Or you could try just feeding inside the enclosure. I feed my snakes in their enclosures and have no problems. It's actually more stressful for the snake to be taken out and moved before being offered food, then taken out and moved again after eating...

    Thanks! Well this morning before I left for work, she was in a very good mood already. Picked her up, cleaned up some poop.. then I discovered something..

    Her eyes were clear and her skin was bright as ever already, so she has shed for sure, BUT I swear, I cannot find her shedded skin! Not even a trace! The only think I can think of is, has she eaten it?? egad! Help!
