Hi All!
I've had my first snake (childrens python hatchie) for around a month now and I just love him!
So far my introduction into reptile keeping has been really awesome!
Just wanting some advice on shedding....
The last few days he has become less active, his colour has become dull, his belly has become slightly pink and he isn't pooing as much, all signs of shedding plus his breeder told me he should be due to shed soon as a few of his siblings have shed.
He is still eating and drinking.
What I'm wanting to know is do I need to do anything special or watch for anything at this time? Do I stop handling him or do I wait for his eyes to turn cloudy? Or do I do nothing and just let him do his thing?
Just wanting my first snake shed to go well hehe
Thanks for any help!
