    They definitely can get a bit fussy when they are in shed mode. Cee Cee can get downright cranky and defensive. Poor thing...I had to give her one of her injections when she was getting ready to shed. Lucky I didn't get bit!

    Still no shed as of this morning. Soon, though, I'm sure. He's buried himself under the substrate to hide so I won't bother him. Humidity is up and I'm gonna let him be until tonight.

    He's never even tried to bite me and he's only musked me a handful of times...maybe five at the most. He's a good tempered snake.

    Just checked on my baby. He's finally beginning to shed. Keeping the humidity up with the lamp on isn't easy, but I'm managing it.

    I'm way too excited about this!

    Yay! You'll have to get a pic when he's done and all shiny!

    I had taken him out before I realized his eyes were cloudy, so I was able to get a picture. Part of why I took him out was to do a quick spot clean and change his water.

    Today I had to take him out to clean out some damp substrate that didn't dry after a misting...may have gotten wet when I changed the water. I also had to do more spot cleaning because he apparently needed to use the bathroom quite a bit after the last, short spot cleaning. I managed to get a good shot before I quickly put him back in.

    I'll continue to check on him to make sure the shed is coming off properly. It should be done by the time I go to bed. Then I can take/post pictures of his shiny new skin xD

    Re: Cuddles!

    We're all done shedding!

    Noticed not long after I posted the pics that there was a shed laying just in front of the hide. I had to go eat dinner, so I let him be, and then when I was done I checked on him. I saw a few flakes like the ones I've seen on him before, so I went ahead and stuck him in a shed box while I unloaded and loaded the dishwasher for my mom. Everything looks fine now that I've got him out.

    I'll post pictures as soon as I take them!
