Help for new snake owners!
We have had our 2 year old Cali king for about a month. He was very docile and calm for the first week or two that we had him.
Since then he has started to bite every time we attempt to handle him. It is not a striking bite and he doesn't appear to be defensive in the tank but once he is on our hands he will place his nose directly on our skin for a second or two and then bite and won't let go. We can only handle him with gloves now and he does not even attempt a bite with the gloves on.
Recently we have noticed his skin on his belly near his tail appears to be coming off but only in this area. Could this be a bad shed or something else? There has been no changes to his eye colour that we could see that would indicate a shed.
I have tried to attach some pictures but the forums will not allow me to do so.
