Bad Shed Situation
Looking for some advice here - My pueblan milksnake, CiCi, is trying to shed but can't seem to. I have had her a year and she has shed many times before with no problem, but this is different. For about a month she has been showing the usual dullness, but now she is wrinkled and I picked her up today and she is so stiff! She also refused food I offered yesterday.
Normally she hides during the day, but now she can't even curl up to fit in her hide she is so stiff. Some scales are sticking out.
What I have done today is mist her terrarium, give her a much bigger water dish she can completely submerge in, with warm water. I picked her up (I don't normally handle her) and that was when I found out how stiff she was, and then placed her in the large water dish about an hour ago. She was still in there when I last checked. Anything else I can do?
