Once I had mentally inserted the commas and full stops in your post, Jimmy : Great stuff! I had been waiting about 3 years to see that! Finally saw it for the first time a couple of weeks ago! It IS great, isn't it!?! :-)

Jimmy,not sure how big your snake is but when the shed doesn't fully come off at the tail on very young snakes you should keep an eye on it, as it can have an effect like a rubber band on a sheeps tail and will fall off..

You got a capital and a heap of smileys,how about a full stop or 2...

Sorry about the lack of punctuation but it was 4:30 in the morning and i was stuffed. It was a site that is for sure im so glad i caugt it. As for his tail there was sum skin i noticed that didnt come off with the shed i helped him out there. He really dose look absolutly stunning today in the sun there is nothing as beautiful as a recently shed snake.

Happy for you Jimmy - I know what you mean by the look of a freshly shed snake. Very pretty.

My little tiny Jungle lookalike shed this week, and then she came out of hiding onto her branch - so I tried her with her first frozen thawed pinkie mouse - from me - and she took it so fast! (STP had switched her from live to F/T for me)

Then went into her waterbowl to try to eat it and I thought she was drowning!
She eventually put her head up and ate it but her body stayed in the water.
She was a very happy snake I think.
