licorice black rat from Joliffs (PIC)

I love this guy so much, he might even be my favorite snake already. He's doing great, but still hasn't shed and I've had him since the end of last November. I'm starting to wonder how much a snake can grow without shedding. The pic could've been a little better, but I was anxious to get an updated one of him while I was home. Enjoy.

Sorry about the disheveled-looking enclosure. All of my snakes will be moving to a new rack system this weekend. I hope he likes aspen.

pretty snake. He looks fat and happy.
I wouldn't worry about him not shedding, though it is odd that he's gone that long without doing it. I've had snakes go a couple months without shedding, then suddenly start doing it once every 3 weeks.
