EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Taiwan beauty snake was in shed and I was putting some Duct tape on his large tupper wear container he came out and got stuck on the tape. I ran him and the tape under water but a little shed came off. He is still in the blue phase and help would be appriciated. It examined the snake and he looked clear. But I would like to know what you think or what I should do!!!!

Are you saying he is still stuck in the tape? If so use goo gone from elmers to remove it. I had a pair of bogeys get stuck in tape and although there were scars and I was 500% sure the female was going to die they lived and are thriving! They smelled like goo gone though for like 6 months even after shedding.

Hope this helps!

Baby oil(mineral oil), or vegetable oil will do the trick!. Then when you get the majority of the oil wiped off afterwards,...just dunk them in a bowl of water with some dish detergent added to it.
