well thats not the problem except that its taken longer then usual, shes a bit over a year old and I haven't fed her for almost 3 weks, tho last feed she had 2 fuzzies and I usually feed her every 10 days. My question is: Do I wait for her to shed or feed her and hope her shedding doesnt get stuck over her tummy? Perhaps just give her one fuzzy rather then 2? I'm just not sure how long she will be ok without a feed??
any help would be greatly appreciated  |

Have you seen your snakes eyes go milky in the last few weeks, does it look like it's going to shed - if so then you can wait. If not just feed her as usual, as they grow, the frequency of shedding decreases.

Some think this is the wrong thing to do, but in reality, If the snake doesn't want to take what you offer it, it simply won't. Just keep the humidity up the higher end of the scale and you won’t have any dramas. |
