Re: snakeweed

Love how bold the colours are on a milk snake
they look the best just after shedding

Re: snakeweed

thank you guys... this evening when i came home from work i took a look his tank and i see him hanging out by the grass. could this mean he is getting comfortable or was he looking for food? since i got him i have never seen him out in the open like that its monday so it was feeding time... he ate about an hr ago with no issues. he actually ate it within seconds after he smelled the small fuzzy

Re: snakeweed

Thanks guys!

looks like snakeweed is getting ready to shed he was extremely gentle and calm when i picked him up (i thought he was going to fight me and try to get away). I offered him a small fuzzy and he ate it. I had to put it right on his nose for him to take it. hopefully by the time he sheds the meal will be fully digested. his whole belly is hazey but his eyes arent blue yet. cant wait for his first shed with me

looks like this heat is drying up all the humidity. my lil guy was poking his head out of the aspen this morning when i woke up so i decided to check up on him. His eyes were blue thursday morning when i checked him and he's been in a deep hide and super inactive. Well, it looked like he was able to take off the head part of the old skin and thats about it. i soaked in warm water this morning for about 3 mins (i had to go to work) so hopefully that helps. the heat has been cranking at my house and rightfully so as its been 20 degrees over the last few days.

will he be able to shed today? im guessing hes going to try again later as he still has the entire skin to take off minus the head...
