i got home from work last night, and as routine goes, i fed the fish and the dog, started supper for the kids and went to change Batista's water and do any neccesary cleaning in his tank. i looked in there just as he was rubbing his head on his hide to see him start to shed!!!! i sat there for an hour and watched the whole process...it was the coolest thing i have ever seen! needless to say, supper burned...lol...
this was his first complete shed...i didn't have too remove any peices this time, and being the skin was still moist when i removed it from his tank, i was able to stretch it out and let it dry...it's hanging on my fridge...lol....i measured it...it was 31 1/2 inches long....
i feel like a good mom!!!!
