    Shedding starting and I am going away for a week!?

    I am a little worried about the humidity while I am away. I can get it up to 70-75% and it will stay above 60 for 4-5 days will that be enough?

    What stage of shed are you in? Pink belly, blue? Also, do you have anyone to check on your snakes?

    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    She was pink belly and today she is blue. I will have someone check on her (our first and only so far). They are ok with reptiles but are a little nervous with the snake. I don't have anyone that actually knows about snakes. I am only a phone call away but still the more I can prep the better. I am going to come home a day early to so only 6 days.

    Honestly, I've had my humidity around 60% during a shed before and the shed was perfect (I had to leave for a couple of days too). But its best if someone could mist it a few days while you're gone.

    a bad shed isn't the end of the world lol, if you could get some one to mist the cage once or twice I think that you will be fine.

    Thanks. My cage will hold it pretty good but I just would rather ask then run into a problem that I could have prevented by asking.

    As always thanks.
