Yeah, she improved a LOT very quickly. Part of why I think her issue was less a complete lack of food and more just small or inconsistent food; they don't bounce back this easily if it's that bad.Originally Posted by Bogertophis
She actually looks like a whole different snake than your first photos.
Hope the male settles down now too.
She will probably drop one hell of a poop after this shed though. I'm really hoping her scales start feeling less flimsy after a shed also, it is a really weird feeling how they are even out of shed. Almost like a faux-snakeskin combined with the sort of brittle "in shed" belly scale sensation? I don't even know if that's a good description of it. Pretty sure that part is from her dehydration since it has improved over time. The shed should help since she has had good water and humidity here.
He's just small and shy, I think. They've both only been offered 3 meals and he refused #3, the first try on frozen, so I'm not handling a lot; pretty much just to swap the paper towels out. I expect he will calm out a lot by 300-400g. My banana was fairly shy at this size, though no strikes, and he got much braver about then.
