So, to start things off, the first snake that I have ever owned is going through his first shed and it's going awful. First, I left him alone for a week because he was in shed, but in doing so his cage got super dirty because I wasn't opening the cage and looking around it because I was leaving him alone, so did his water. And I know the humidity is low I was going to buy a fogger this weekend but already it seems to have had a bad affect because his old skin doesn't seem to want to come off, and he hates soaking so much that my normally lazy snake tries everything to get away from me to avoid the water so I can't soak him and use a rag to try and get the dead skin off. And then I didn't get a chance to buy more crickets for my lizard who is looking thin now. On top of that I got in a car accident on Monday and now my car is totaled and I had to miss two days of work because I was so emotionally distraught over it since it was my first crash ever, both as a driver or as a passenger. And I feel like a terrible snake/lizard owner. And now because of the accident I'm behind on my writing. And it's just been a bad week overall, and now I feel bad for spending an entire post complaining... and I think my original reason for this post was to get some encouragement, but I feel bad asking for it.![]()
