Re: Color Change Excelerating
It is having a very bad shed this time but looks like it has got most of the old skin off. Only thing that changed is we switched over to adult mice from hoppers. Perhaps the larger size put some stress on the snake or feeding while in shed. Shedding certainly has not affected its appetite unlike our ball python which doesn't want anything to do with eating while in shed. Our red tail boa and GTP don't seem to care and are always hungry!

Re: Color Change Excelerating
As long as all your husbandry is right (worth double checkign it just in case  ) then it could be one of those weird sheds - mine had one a while back but i cant remember whether it was around coolour change or food change time.

Re: Color Change Excelerating
Current conditions are 85.8 degrees at the highest perch, 79.8 at the bottom of the cage and 73% humidity! Oh yah, also partly cloudy with a breeze out of the south and a 100% chance of mist tonight!
He (she?) is currently perched at mid-cage level as usual. This cage has been really outstanding at keeping near perfect conditions. It's a shame I am going to have to move up to a bigger one in the next 6 months or so. The only thing different that I can think of is the feeding of an adult mouse while in shed...He seems otherwise happy as far as I can tell. I know sometimes bad sheds just happen for reasons we can't see.

Re: Color Change Excelerating
Could be the food my jcp had a bad shed recently dueto eating, as he was working the rat down we could see the soon to be shed skin ripping off his back.

Re: Color Change Excelerating
You may be right. The adult mouse was definately a larger meal than it has ever had before. I guess it will be a wait and see until next shed situation.

Re: Color Change Excelerating
Snake has shed again! Must have done an expedited shed since the last was so bad. This time it all came off in one piece and the snake looks great!!! Will post some pics soon.
