The EPIC fakeout!
And no I'm not talking about the Bruce Buffer spin (I hope someone on the forums gets that reference), but either way. My BP a mid-late 08 male who I got about 2 weeks ago, went into shed the other day, on Saturday or Sunday. His eyes clearly got cloudy and his skin began looking very dull, vs his normal vibrant yellow (super pastel). This continued, and he was also pretty grumpy, really didn't want to get picked up, even vocally told me so! Anyway, this morning I go in there, before work, because I just wanna look at him (he hides all the time!!! which I suppose means he's happy). And he looks completely normal, almost as if he had completed his shed. Now the kicker! I can't find any skin, anywhere! So a couple of questions, a) did he totally pull the epic fakeout and not shed at all, just faked it to be left alone in his hut? b) Did he eat his sock of skin? or c) Am I just crazy? I'm pretty sure he was in shed, my GF works at Petco and deals with their snakes all the time and we were both POSTIIVE he was shedding. Do snakes eat their skin similar to shrimp and some inverts? Either way, now that he's back, I'm gonna try feeding again, he refused last week! Hopefully he will be mighty hungry this time around. Thanks for the feedback!
