I think my snake is about to shed.

[Concept9]

Soooo last night I got home and it's feeding day for my MBK. I got him about a month ago from the SPCA.

Full story here.

He was abused and in nasty shape. I have him all fixed up now and he is NORMALY pretty relaxed now.

Normaly he is a very passive happy go lucky snake. But last night when I got him out to feed him he started hissing ALOT non stop, mouth open the whole bit.

He did eat his rat after a couple tries and combed down a bit after that.

I'm pretty sure this is because he is about to shed. I didnt notice any peeling on his head or body anywhere, nor did I notice any blue in his eyes, his skin however is not glossy but getting almost flat color.

Am I correct in assuming this ?
