 Luci is deep in shed...

I going around to the snake tanks today, doing routine water changes, bedding, etc...
When I went digging around for Luci. I hadn’t seen her in about a week, so I had feared she got out.
Well, I found her well-buried under her bedding, curled up in a tight coil.
My little girl is in shed!



I’ve had her since November, and this is her first shed with me.
Is that odd?
I find that wierd.
Anyways, this is Lucifer’s first shed. :]

That is weird. I’ve had my daughter’s since the begining of January this year and it’s going through it’s second shed since we have had it right now. Maybe yours isn’t growing as fast as ours? I feed ours 2 mouse pinkies every 5 days. How much do you feed yours?

She’s eating a fuzzy about once a week.
Which is why her lack of shed is wierd.
She is perfectly healthy otherwise. Still a fiesty girl, ratting her tail every time I open the tank.

Thats not weird at all, different snakes have different growth rates, I’v had snakes go with out a shed for months longer than that.
