 THE BIGGEST SCARE OF MY LIFE!

Ok, well, I was getting ready for trick-or-treating, and (cupid lives in my room) so I walk over and check on my herps, and noticed cupid it like pushing is nose on the floor, almost flipping over. I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT HE WAS DYING! So, I panicked, and got my mom to get him out, and she did and he was a little jumpy. He acted normal though, wasn’t lethargic or anyhthing, and we were like...no why would he have done that? My mom says "He did eat right?" "Yea" I reply, and thats when it dawned upon me, right after he ate 3 days ago, I noticed his eyes were cloudy! He wasn’t dying on me at all! He was beginning to shed! i feel like such a dork, but so releived at the same time! Ha, I bet i’ll have a shed tomorrow! HEHE!!

I hear ya when I picked up Isabella just the other day I thought I was going to cry (LOL ask Jake I called him in a total PANIC!) her belly was all pink and some of her scales were peeled back and coming off plus she whistled when she breathed and i thought she was dying (I’m REALLY new to the reptile world, this is way different than my 5 cats back home ^_^) turns out my humidity was too low for her to be shedding...yah needless to say i felt like a heel..

you don’t need to wait 2 weeks, you can pick her up in 4 days (you said you have had her 3)

It is best to wait at least a week to hold the snake after introducing it to new surroundings, allowing the snake to get acclimated to its new area!!
