patchy shed

cat Mar 18, 2004 11:01 AM

hiya,

my ball has just gone through his third patchy shed in a row. hes only shed those three times since ive had him. the humidity is fine, and he soaked in his water, could it be him as an individual?

thanks,

cat

i have some animals which are prone to patchy shed (who knows why) but a tupperware box filled with spaghnum soaked in hot water always does the job, cut a hole big enough for the snake and it is like his own little sauna, and that shed will come right of next time

I use a fine mist spray bottle with HOT water & mist twice a day.
