Shedding problem, Suggestions pleaaaaaaaaaaaassse!!

calvo Mar 15, 2004 12:00 AM

I have aquired a 6 month old ball python who is my pride and joy. He is eating fine and went through his first shed with me fine apart from the front of his nose, which after a week is still there and i don´t want to stress him out by fiddling around his mouth area.

He has pleanty of humidity, a tank with clean water where he bathes regularly and pleanty of hide areas

What should i do ????

Any suggestions would be very welcome

Thanks

Andy

Ihave a formula called SHED EASE.Its mad e by the company ESU REPTILES.the way it works is that you have to put the snake in water for about tweenty minutes.The n you take him out of the water and the shed might have come out and stayed on the water but if it didnt then you have to rubb it of very gently.for the times i use it it worked perfectly.
