Well,even though we got all the loose skin off,he's still in pretty rough shape. All the scales on the top half of his body are dry and kind "wrinkled up" I think he may have a sunburn from having no cover.The good new is,he's drinking and I got him to eat last night with all my others.I tried for the first time ever to feed my snakes something that wasn't alive.I got a 10lb bag of chicken quarters and they went through them like kids through candy,and he joined right in!The only draw back I've noticed so far is,chicken is GREASY! LOL Anyway,it was a lot cheaper than I was used to,and also much easier to come by than feeders.I'm gonna fatten him up and see if the next time he sheds again maybe he'll clear up a little,but at least we got him warm and eating,so that's two steps in the right direction anyway.
