okay, so i had drake out today... i just couldn't stand not being able to spend time with him. so i held him for a while and he slithered all over me and i started noticing he was leaving scales on my hands... (remember he was rubbed down with mineral oil to kill his mites on friday)

he is still all glossy from his rub down on friday... and i wonder if he's shedding but instead of a complete shed he's releasing each scale because of the mineral oil???

here's a pic of the scales he left behind (my hands looked like they do after you gut a fish - with the scales on your hands)
