Shedding Help

[Jack92]

Hey Guys I've got my Jungle/Diamond Python and he is about to have his first shed since Ive had him. I fed him around five days ago and he still hasnt done a poo, just wondering if this is normal behaviour before they're about to shed. Also any tips to help with his shedding is appreciated Thanks

They poo when they gotta lol, he may save it for when he's shedding, getting a slough full of crap is always fun. Saves too much cleaning at least

He should be fine, just leave him be and makes sure he's got fresh water & sufficient heating and he'll be right. If you have any dramas see this thread:

Oddly enough, snakes have been shedding their skins without our help for thousands of years...

Hey there, he'll be okay, they more often than not poo, while the are shedding off the old skin

Sorry for late reply. Yeah late last night he had shed all of it clean as through the plants he has, it was pretty cool seeing it though being a new Snake owner and all Also he did leave a nice present as well, I just tend to worry too much and don't want anything going wrong
I'll post a pic of his shed

Thanks guys
