    Re: Shedding Q's solved?

    This is just a guess, but perhaps the tongue doesn't "feel" right so they don't like eating because of the way it feels.

    I'm more inclined to think that "nothing" feels right and they may sense that they're more vulnerable. My long term captive WC hides for the better part of a week before shedding. I don't usually even see the blue stage because he's no where to be seen. I can see part of his body in his hide, and can see that he's changed position a bit, but other than that I simply don't see him... makes me worry a bit... then next time I see him there's an old shed and a shiny new snake out and about ready to eat He just shed yesterday after making me worry most of last week

    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.
