    Fixing Stuck Sheds - Without Soaking

    Hey guys,
    This site has been really great when I got started with ball pythons so I figured I'd contribute something back. This is a method I thought of after struggling to remove a really bad shed on a recent purchase/rescue. Soaking worked very little and so I decided to do this instead and I've been doing it ever since. It works fantastic and is way less effort and risk to the snake when soaking (provided you ALWAYS use a regulated heat source). I put the url underneath here to the youtube video I made. Let me know what you guys think and if you also have success with this method!

    I like where your head is, but that looks like more of a hassle IMO, and now I have the added expense of having to buy sphagnum moss when the water is free. But it doesn't hurt to have another option out there.
