cool! where can I get me a shedless snake?LOL Jimmy the old skin tends to go transluscent and shows the new scales underneath really well, as though it has shed! You'll find your snake will loose the old one in the next couple of days. You Wally!~

Just saw this thread. I once had a keelback eat its slough, about 24 hours after sloughing it. It's only happened once, weird.

I'm guessing it was just a 'mistake', but it ate the whole thing!

What did jimmy say? I can't read his posts over 3 lines unless I have lots of panadol available.

My lizards will rip the shedding skin off and then eat it but I have never heard about it happening with snakes.

My coastal carpet is in the the 'white eye' stage at the moment and has been for a day or two so i'm predicting no more than about 36 hours until the sloughing. I'll let you know if i can find it's shed!! i've never heard of a snake eating it's own shed though!!
