Is she about to shed?

[kane_abel]

Hey I'm just trying to verify if my girl is about to shed. I made sure I was real gentle getting her out for the pic and she was nice to me. I've noticed that her head is getting kinda blue/cloudy and now i can start to notice it on her body.

I can't tell 100% by the pic. Do you have a belly shot?

[bsash]

If the eyes are/ were "blue" or cloudy then, yes. Also, sometimes when they are about to shed their belly will turn pink.

[kane_abel]

her belly hasn't really shown change. Her eyes aren't as blue as her head appears to be.

If he's starting to look blue, then yes. Have you read this sticky?

[kane_abel]

Yes, I read that. I am just real unsure since I am a first timer

Yea, you can't really tell from the pic, but i'd say its possible because she looks kind of dull. What made me 100% certain of my snakes first shed was that his sides looked really faded and almost blueish. A day or two after his eyes clouded up and i knew it was coming.

how soon since the cloudyness starts will your snake actually start shedding... like 2 weeks? 1 month? 5 months? 1 year? i have no clue coz my snake's eyes is just so cloudy right now.

Usually within a couple of weeks if the eyes are clouded over, ours clouded over and he shed all of his skin off about a week later.

hi,

our balls usually shed about 5-8 days after the eyes are clear again.
