Shedding

DeltaWoods Jun 24, 2003 11:48 PM

How long does the shed cycle usually take for everyone. Last thursday my snakes eyes turned blue then last night they returned to the black color again then this morning i woke up to find him totally shed in mostly one big piece. I was under the impression that the cycle should last for more than 5 days.

Yea, mine usually lasts about 1-2 weeks from the first time I notice a light blue sheen on my snake, to the time it is completely off.

My hatchling female shed in 4 days.
My 1 1/2 year takes about 6 days.
My bigger ones take longer than that.

So . . . yeah.
