Stuck Shed - Usual Methods Tried
Hey friends! My new BP just had her first shed and it was quite the ordeal. I think her humidity was good leading up to it, 50-60%, and then 70-80% while she was actively shedding, but I wound up having to help her after 24 hours because she still had plenty of skin all over to her.
I popped her into a container with water and a washcloth, and after about an hour took her out and she had not made much progress. So rub down it was. Most of her shed is now off with the exception of her neck, which I figure should be OK and will come off in due time, but she also has a tiny bit around her vent. Should I try to soak again and get that off, or? Thoughts/advice would be appreciated! Also, if should have done anything differently, please let me know.
Last time I rubbed her down and got around there her spurs were out and kind of catching on the skin. Her spurs are still a little bit out. Hopefully, these pictures will help. It's hard to take a picture of a snake butt!
