One More Shed

run26neys Nov 24, 2008 07:59 PM

Here is another one of my BRB’s that shed. This is another 07 from Dave Colling, but from his Fred x Betty litter. She was FRxBE #2 from the litter – and is also another that has no name (but my kids right now are trying to name all of my snakes so who knows).

I need to try to get pics of my larger snakes – as I have a really nice Jeff Clark male and a 100% het and a poss het from Mike Lockwood.

but is it just me, or does it have a bit of a weird head in the pictures as a baby?

You mean the shape? Many look like that, something they grow out of.

I notice it mostly on newborns, I think it's just normal skull development. Pro bably something they grow into / out of.

What I have noticed is that a large percentage of newborn babies have very slightly lumpy heads and most of them are less lumpy and even look sleek after the first or second shed.
