OK, what the heck is going on here? do albinos not turn blue, cloudy, anything before they shed? I found Amy's skin in her water dish today, neatly wrapped around plant roots in her water dish. I don't know how long it was there. I do know it happened sometime between Saturday afternoon and Monday morning. If I had to guess, I'd say it happened late sun night.
For the past week, she's been hiding day and night, but eating every other day if I make her come out so I wasn't too concerned yet. I noticed that today she's been out for many hours, very active, and I decided to feed her and change her water when I found the skin.
Now her behavior for the past week makes sense but I saw no other signs that she was going to shed. I was beginning to wonder, she's definitely due for a shed. Just caught me by surprise since I saw no cloudy or dull in her colors prior to shed. She just wasn't active at all, regardless of temperature, but no blue, no dull. She looks the same. I'm used to seeing this happen with very small babies in the first 2 mos or so, but 6 months, 10-11 inches???

I have had my sand boa go blue and not shed. Which was very strange. She shed just the other day and I didn't even notice she went blue! ( Damn snakes who hide all the time! ) She's supposed to let me know so that I can set up her snakey sauna!
She's just trying to keep the mystery in your relationship! ;-)
Don confirmed that iowa albino radixes do not go blue. Their yellow just fades a bit and they go off food for about a week. I didn't even notice. Amy kept eating even though she was hiding a lot.
