Not the best pic quality, but heres a pic of my ball right after a shed, hes a normal bp, nothing special, but im proud of how he looks now. when i got him, he was thin, his color was dull, and his scales were rough. another rescue for me, hes doing MUCH better now. his eyes still have cracks in them, no matter what i do, but overall he is doing very well. Thought id share!

thank you, he's turned out to be a real sweetie. He was so head shy when I first obtained him, and now, he lets me touch his head, and he just sits there when I have to get his eyecaps off. I walk all over the house with him around my neck, and he just chills out. He even likes my dog. I think the dog tolerates him, cause he knowes the snakes were there first, and they have seniority in the house.

the pics has evidence of a bad shed. and with the cracks on his eyes, do you soak him and have a lot of heat on him? It seems he may need more? i dunno just my humble opinion :-D may need more moisture

it actually all came off in like 2 big peices, he just crawled all over then and tore them to shreds before i had a chance to pick them out. when i got him, it all came off in a million pieces. he even had about 3 layers of shed around his neck and head. i soak him alot, and i mist him several times daily. he has his heat pad, and his basking light, and i use red 60w lights at night. hes just a punk and likes to make messes for me to clean:grumps:

lol he's just a punk! i didn't mean to offend your huabandry techniques if it came off like i was. I was just making a suggestion. So if i did i apologize i didn't mean it to. but the python is beautiful :) congrats!

dont worry about it, no offence taken, i would have thought the same thing looking at that pic. he also poops in the middle of the night and smears it all over the place, i think its because he likes taking baths:rolleyes:

i find bagging them (putting in a wet bag) for a day does wonders.
