When to get bad shed off
Hey all,
My snake just shed but I'm pretty sure he she has her tail still on. I just fed her about an hour ago so now I'm torn between getting the tail off or waiting 2 days and then getting the tail off. Advice?

Leave it alone for now since you just fed your snake, it can wait

for how long before it starts killing the tail?

Give it like two, three days to digest the food, and then what I do is put them in a small deli container with a damp paper towel. this method works for me and I've never had any issues. Gets the skin right off
DC Reptiles.com coming soon....

I agree, it can wait till he digests his food. I wouldn't worry about it falling off any time soon (given that she hasn't had stuck tail shed before and now it's two stuck tail sheds).
