Perfect Shed

[Cubby23]

My little one just had a perfect shed. I'm so happy now I KNOW all the husbandry is good.

Congrats!

But, you can have good husbandry and still have incomplete sheds ... I get at least a couple incomplete sheds every week, and I'm certain that my husbandry is good too!

Quick question Adam just for my own education really. Even with good husbandry, when you get incomplete sheds is it a pattern for that particular snake to do this or just a wierd once in a while thing? In other words, no matter what ones does do some snakes just have incomplete sheds anyways?

I have some that just NEVER have complete sheds .... seems like (no science behind this, just my observation) some ball pythons have "thinner" skin than others and have a harder time shedding it in one piece even in perfect humidity ... I see it in many of my hypos and aberrants, but it happens in normals as well.

And then sometimes, they are just having a bad day.
