Wrinkly skin?

Haha no they sell a cheaper version of their regular whiskey. It's got a green label, and it says it's "sold in times of economic distress." AKA depression whiskey. And it's not bad, for whiskey anyways. But i digress.

Ummmm,

JD gets rid of mites? is this true? my snake doesnt have mites but if he did at least i know i always have the cure around lol

He meant they sell it cheaper than retail from their website.

Do not put Jack Daniels on your snake to try and cure mites kids.

How about if I just drink a bottle of whiskey? Then hold my snakes while running around naked in my neighbors front yard while screaming about the coming of the demon serpents?

Might I suggest this also?

Cheap and accurate. The stickie analog guages you are using to read temps and humidity are not accurate, and it may say 55 humidity and it's probably a lot less, same with the temps.

Heh,

I'm broadly in favour of this course of action ( mainly because I am a continent away and won't have to see it ) but I should warn you it probably won't cure the mites.

I also take no responsibility for the property values or legal ramifications.

Have fun though.

What most of the people have been saying is a good idea: give her a nice soak for a couple minutes each day until she can get that shed off. When you take her out, let her crawl through a towel (use your hand and make a tunnel with it and apply LIGHT pressure) and see if that gets the shed off. When my girl had a bad shed I did that, and it worked like a charm, the shed came right off! Higher humidity in the enclosure couldn't hurt either.

BE CAREFUL with the water temperature though, what's mildly warm to us is hot to them, so a little hotter than room temperature should be perfect.

Alright, i soaked her, and now she's mostly shed (just a few inches at the end.) She's really picky, so after trying unsuccessfully to tempt her with a frozen/thawed mouse, i opted to go get a live one, and of course she went right for it, and ate it in half the time she ate her last one. Tomorrow should i soak her again if her skin hasn't come off? or should i give her a few days to digest her delicious meal.

[Skittles1101]

Give her 2 days to digest, for sure.

I figured as much. Also, thanks for the thermometer suggestion, that little thing looks pretty badass, i'll have to get one ASAP.
