hi all just wanted to know how much i have before he goes into complete shed cycle ? and what to help this process along ?

You usually get a shed after 7-10 days. Just keep the humidity up a bit more than usual and you shouldn't have any problems.

That's quite the snake you have there. Would a little info and another pic be too much to ask?

Thanks Tim. This is a male that I produced in 97 from my first breeding of a Lemke axanthic to my white phase het axanthic. I still have this guy and he'll be hookin up soon. Here's a full body shot.

He is very different. I'm sure he produces some interesting offspring. Ice blue cool.

Hey thanks, how need i go about gettin the humidity up? is misting ok? n need i mist ever day till hes all cleared up? appreciate the help! Great looking snake by the by what breed is that? awesome pic!

I don't think you have to spray every day, but when he gets a little closer to shedding, give him a light spray once a day or every other day. Depending on where you live, humidity can be just right or too low. During the summer, shedding problems are usually fixed by natural humidity in the air. It's the winter months that seem to cause the problems.

The snake pictured is an Axanthic Brooksi.
