Re: preemptive wet-bagging?
I use the rough cotton bags my supplier ships the supers in and some "real" snake bags for the bigger snakes
I don't usually wet-bag over night because I'm worried about the temps getting too low I like putting the wet bag with the snake in it in a bowl that has a little bit of warm water at the bottom and I expose part of the bowl to a little heat I monitor a lot because I want the temps to be in a decent range and I want to make sure the bag doesn't dry out I don't get bad sheds very often, but more often during the colder seasons Sammy started having a blueish cast to her eyes yesterday I'll see if I can find the time to take some photos today she looks amazingly cruddy

Re: preemptive wet-bagging?
I guess it worked
