Posted - 13/06/2012 : 23:18:06 Hi can anyone offer some advise, I'm having probs with my snake, I've had him "Cyril" 7 weeks now and this is his 2nd shed, only he has retained quite a bit of his skin, is there anything I should be doing? his viv is heated by a heat mat, and does not have a light source(should it)in there!! I have put an extra water bowl in there but its not helping, he is also very quiet, I only see him when I get him out, he's been like this just over a week now....????he has no probs with eating, he eats once a week on 2pinkys.
Any advise would be appreciated as Cyril is my 1st snake
Thanks in advance

Thanks again :)
