    eye cap

    we got a deal on a lesser hit albino girl "Nu Wa" when we offered to buy a black pastel hit albino boy "Akamaru". i checked her temps today and noticed the female lesser's right eye was shiny its fully mirrored and there is some of the between scale skin left around the eye cap. should i wait for next shed or try to give here warm moist paper towels etc. shes only been with us for 30 hours now and i don't want to stress her out. the boy gave me my first ever bite from a ball python as it is lol.

    Re: eye cap

    If your husbandry is right, it will most likely correct itself on the next shed cycle. Nothing to worry about.
