Re: Help, very wrinkly baby
If he looks better you don't need the vet. If he's still wrinkly and you don't want to bring him in you can always bring a stool sample to test for internal parasites. That doesn't require the snake's presence. If it would put your mind at ease to take him in for a checkup that's OK too.
I've used a product called Repti Shedding Aid to help soften up the skin and make it easier for a snake with stuck shed to get it off. A warm moist towel works too. Providing a humid hide at shedding time is an excellent idea, especially if you live in an area where humidity is low.
