So I decided to take jelly beans in for a checkup the reason being is he has been in a shed state for 2 weeks now with no progress. My main concern is his eyes have been covered with this cracked looking skin for a while. I've been trying all the little tricks of putting him in a tupperware type container with a damp washcloth and put it over his heating pad and make it real humid which really looked like it would work but it didn't. His humidity has been high enough it's been between 60 and 85. I've basically had everything perfect for a snake in shed.
Anyway they did a fecal and he was loaded down heavily with protozoans..he got a dose of Flagyl (to be repeated in 10 days) and has eye ointment I apply twice a day. And the great news is none of this has stopped him from eating!:
He weighed 86grams. She thought he may be a tad under weight.
