    Re: Oh my here I go again!!

    Hi,

    the dent in the eyes can be caused by him getting in to shed. It takes about 2-5 days when the eyes clear to actually shedding. My female always takes about 6 days after blue to actually shed (wich is really strange but she is a good shedder). But i would recommend to get ur humidity a bit higher. 50% is a bit low. They need at least 70-80 to get there skin off. If u have problems with getting the humidity in the tub to that percentage u can always provide a humidity hide (with some sphagnum moss or so).

    As for the popping sound, the same female i've talked about before does that same thing.. I sometimes hear her do a poping sound from her mouth wich i dont hear with my other snakes. But as far as i know she isn't sick at all. You can know the RI from bubbles at his mouth and slimy stuff from sneezing. If you see any of those things its possible he has an RI, otherwise i wouldn't worry about it...

    Indeed the not eating may be caused by the shedding cycle. Just keep a really close eye on him...

    Btw: are you keeping him in a terrarium or a tub? and what do u use to get the heat up (heatmath/ lamps/....)?
