So having just fed Boozer and put him back in his viv I was watching him have a drink and then going into his warm hide when he decided that because he had made a mess with his mouse and had blood on his body he then decided to try and bite himself at least 3 times he must of thought he still had a mouse. Checked to see he hadn't done any damage must have been giving himself love bites lol |

Even in slow motion, id have been like a headless chicken |

It's horrible when they do that  . Kellog went through a phase where as soon as he shed he would go all jerky, as though he had electrical currents pulsing through him, and bite himself. Having loved watching my snakes shed I came to dread it and would have to leave the room. We think his skin was just over-sensitive....and he was being an idiot  .
Changed to Lignocel a few months ago to see if it would make a difference and finally saw him shed a couple of weeks ago. Still a bit jerky afterwards but no biting  . Such a relief.
