Sinaloan Shed Probs

Well, my Sinaloan continues to have shedding problems. Every other snake I have sheds just fine. The damp towl in a pillowcase over night helps every time, but I am hoping she grows out of this. So far, 4 sheds and all were problematic.

I still love the little girl, and am glad that she is with me. Someone else may not know to look places like here for wisdom and advice on caring for problems.

Nothing new, just caring for my 5 snakes. Will post pics later.

(Thank Venus for reminding me to post )

See you soon!

I had the same problem with a red tail boa I had. Unfortunately it didn't go well for me and he ended up losing the tip of his tail. Never once had a complete shed. I hope yours grows out of it.

She had a semi-successful shed with no help from me!!! It was in a few large pieces, and there was only a small piece on her back that I had to remove.

Full head shed, eye caps and all.

I am so relieved. Here's to hoping this is a trend from here on out.
