Re: Dehydrated skin?
I thought of doing the same thing on RFUK but I don't think it would have gone down as well over there lol.

Re: Dehydrated skin?
Your right, I don't think it would have, but it would have given the keyboard warriors something to do for a bit

I won't put any moisturiser on it I think I like having a Rough Scaled Python.... hopefully he keeps it as he grows. |

Re: Dehydrated skin?
Soak the snake in a 50 50 solution of water and Pedialyte for half hour or so at a time until it looks hydrated again

Re: Dehydrated skin?
Just make sure to give it a 100/120 grit sanding wheel on a grinder inside it's enclosure. Run it at night so they have some ambient noise and a nice wheel to rub against and you should be fine. Roughies love their bench grinders!

No totally wrong. It should always be a belt sander! They need the upward motion instead of the circular motion. Plus it gives them a nice warm hide inside the belt. Make sure to use a thermostat with the sander though. Dont want to let him burn himself. Silly snakes.

Re: Dehydrated skin?
You're thinking of the Southern Roughies. I was talking about the Northerns.
