A nice shed... and a few pics

Hi,

Coral shedded and it came out nicely in one piece


77 cms (30inc). I leave for the experts the calculation of Coral´s size (-20% ?)


And, as promised, a few extra pics

A "before and after": same box, same snake, 4 months diff.

February, when I got her


Yesterday



And some others








That´s all folks !

Re: A nice shed... and a few pics

Wow, nice shed! And how coral has grown!! What a beauty.
We always take the shed length and subtract 20% to get the approximate body length. Some people subtract 15% -- as long as you always use the same percentage you can keep an accurate record of how much your snake is growing.
We keep very detailed records on all our snakes; I find it interesting and enjoyable to compare the different snakes.
Thanks for the pics!

Re: A nice shed... and a few pics

Tks Andrea and Knox

I was thinking that Coral wasnŽt growing... at all. Then, I compared the 2 pics and we can really see the difference.
Next weekend IŽll be able to compare the sheds and then IŽll post the results.

SheŽs has been shedding every 2 months, eating well and, overall, doing great. A bit shy, but never bite or musked at me.

So, IŽm very pleased with her and with the snake keeping experience. So pleased that IŽm already negotiating (at home) getting another snake. But , so far, the negotiation is in a standstill: I may bring home another snake IF Cristina brings another dog... So, no deal !

But, IŽll keep negotiating. Keep your fingers crossed for me
