little story about my Goliath (T blondi)
Weeeeeeeeeell here's my little situation 've been having with my adult goliath that some of you on msn might already know about. My female has been hanging around, book lungs and all 2/3 of her body in her water bowl for at least 3 weeks now and not coming up for air. Last week I came up with the idea of removing her water dish as I kept taking her out but she kept going back in. I could turn her on her back and was getting really worried about her especially since she has been bred a couple months ago. Sooooo after taking away her water bowl she got the idea of going into her water fall that is kind of hard for me to remove due to the way I have wied it into the 33 gallon tank I have her in. So now I went into her room to take a picture of my snakes that i have put in another thread and to my surprise......she is shedding! I had come home this afternoon and noticed her out of the water fall which is unusual and she was "half dead"....I even came a hairs lenght of putting her in the freezer to end her suffuring. Thanks_______I didn't. This is a wild caught female and is her first time shedding with me. I've had other large goliaths shed in my care and never noticed such a behaviour.
Hope you enjoyed the story.
