Shedding and Feeding

[alykoz]

Okay so I noticed yesterday that my BP had extremely dull skin so I know she's starting her shedding process. I am supposed to wait until after her eyes shed and her opaque goes away to feed her?
I fed her one mouse last Wednesday and was planning on feeding her two this Wednesday. But I'm not sure if her eyes will be fully shed by then? So I just wait until they go away and then offer her food on a week to week basis until it happens again?

Some BP's will eat during shed, others won't. You can give it a shot, but don't bee too surprised if your BP turns the rodent down.

The shedding process usually takes about a week.

First is the blue phase where the snake turns bluish

Next the snake will actually look normal again. This tend to throw most people off. Make sure your cage humidity is high enough, around 60%

A few days after the BP looks normal again the snake will actually shed. This is a relatively quick process that should result in a shed that came off in one or two pieces if it is successful.

After the Snake sheds Things should return to normal.
