Anyone ever see a snake trapped crawling around inside it's own shed skin?

She did a couple laps around her old skin before finally breaking out.

Keeping cats allows man to cohabitate with tigers. Keeping reptiles allows man to cohabitate with dinosaurs.

HAHAA!!,...yep!

I wish I knew exactly where my phots of them where. I saw one of them not too long ago, but now that I want it, it would probably take me all night looking through hundreds upon hundreds of pics, and STILL never find it...LOL!

I will give it a whirl though.

Geez, after looking through thousands of my computer pics, I finally found one of the two I photographed. Not the best looking one of the two, but it is a "Hoop snake" shed nonetheless..LOL!

This one was from 5 years ago....

Thats cool you actually caught it in the act. I found one of my Cal king sheds like that one day. There was a little rip where he escaped.

LOL!!,.....yeah, that's funny stuff Mike. I have only seen it twice in my entire life, and have both circular sheds saved from years ago.

I witnessed one just like you described, and had to actually help it crawl out of it's own cloaca vent because it was trapped!.LMAO!!!

Was funny as all hell watching it crawl out of it's own butt!..

Yeah, it's sort of like witnessing a meteor..LOL!, it doesn't happen very often, but over a long period of time, you might be lucky enough to see it happen..LOL!

The odds of a snake actually choosing to crawl around full-circle back into it's own mouth shed when it has the entire cage are pretty rare..HAHA!!

Zeke the baby pyro's little shed; I thought this was so cute what with the tail sticking up I have saved it in a jar.

All the other photos of hoop snake sheds are from other folks' that I have saved.
