How many of you keep the shed skin

snakeofmine Jun 30, 2003 11:45 AM

I dont know why, but ive collected my snakes shed skin for a couple of years now. All are wraped in paper towels, placed in ziplock bags and put in the freezer. I remember there was someoen who used the sheds for some research.. but what about everyone else?

I used to, but I had to get rid of them to make room in the freezer for my kids fingernail clippings and my wife's toe cheese.

i admit it, i keep their skins i like to keep them as sort of a 'record' of their growth. That and i just think they're interesting. I don't tell anyone about it though, my friends think i'm wierd enough as it is. nice talkin to ya,
