Boaz has gone into shed! He still has not eaten since October (have tried EVERY method of feeding too...) but I am hoping that the shed is a good sign. Keeping my fingers crossed that he will eat when the shed is over!

If you post pre-shed pics you know that means you owe us post-shed pics later!!

Looks good. Doesn't look like he's lost any weight either. Hope he eats for ya!!

Looking forward to that.

Also, where have you been? You haven't been around in a while. Everything ok?

**Pareeeee** · 03-26-12, 11:23 AM

Well, I've been busy and just didn't get to do 'forum stuff' for a while. Also I didn't see the point of posting updates since they would all have said: "Boaz didn't eat again" over and over every week, and I think everyone would have gotten tired of that!

Mostly 'cuz doing other stuffs though!

Is that a male kofa mountain locality? If so ours never ate during the breeding season either. Be glad you have a male though, the female thought fingers were food all the time.... He looks really good, can't even tell he's been fasting

He is a beauty, even in shed! And don't worry, he'll start eating again after breeding season. All of my male snakes have just started eating again after being off feed since October ( besides my stubborn Royal, lol)

Just after those photos were taken today I gave him a bath. I want his shed to go smoothy as possible so I'm taking care to make sure he has enough hydration at this time.

He was slightly jumpy when I first went to pick him up, but once he smelled that it was me he calmed right down and just laid there in my hands.

Nice looking snake!!

**Pareeeee** · 04-03-12, 08:03 AM

still hasn't shed... Eyes and skin went clear about five days ago. Waiting impatiently...shed = eat!

**Pareeeee** · 04-03-12, 10:02 PM

He shed! I will post pics tomorrow

**Pareeeee** · 04-06-12, 09:32 AM

Ok so it's not 'tomorrow'. I forgot. Here are the pics now!!

PS: He still won't eat...

With snakes that arent eating it is usually best to just leave them be rather than handling them
