One of my adult male BCCs has not had a good shed the last three times. He is in the same caging and environmental conditions as my other boas and their sheds come off as one rolled donut, in one peice. He used to shed this way as well, now his sheds are broken bits and peices-Some still on his skin. This time I tried to time his shedding after he was opaque and gave him a good soak on Saturday, he shed in peices Sunday night. No external parasites that I can tell.

Any suggestions?

Jeff
