    Re: Shedding, or bad news?

    Guess you forgot already that dyna is my daughter... and she got the older blue of the two you sold me.

    I worked with her to improve environment, and Bluebell, is no longer doing that. Problem is resolved. nose looks better in rl than it does in that photo.

    Re: Shedding, or bad news?

    Sorry about that, I have a lot of people to keep track of. I thought that was your daughter but I wasn't sure. She's the one that came over with you right?

    The injury may leave a scar so the nose won't be as perfect as it was. Also, it sounds like from the description ("crinkly" skin) that the snake was having a retained shed. Be sure that the humidity isn't too low. Especially when using heat lamps, things dry out fast. Misting heavily with a spray bottle twice a day is a good idea as long as the substrate dries fast. I do mist all my tanks twice a day because it is very dry with the heat lamps.

    I nearly lost my tiny albino to a retained shed a few days ago. It was close, but he's fine now.

    Watch closely for signs of the next shed time and keep that humidity up especially during that time.

    I just really know my snakes and even they aren't mine, I can recognize snakes that genetically, are from this general area of their range.

    Show me a typical or anery concinnus that is not many generations removed from the wild and I can tell you the general area they came from usually.
