Hi all. Recently bought my first snake, a 2 year old corn, from Wharf Aquatics in Notts. Very pleased with him and likely to be needing lots of advice as I go along. |

Ummm whaty what what....
If you have a question/ problem open your own topic in the right section, i did find your question on someone elses thread, and Chris HAD answered you, correctly saying its better to have kitchen roll for spotting poop, if after that still a problem, come back.
This is a very helpful/friendly forum and you WILL get an answer |

Er what ARE you talking hijacking someone else's thread about??? The only other post of yours I can find has been replied to... And was posted after this one... I can only assume you have deleted a post or 2??

He's a beautiful snake. But did you say he was a blood red? Does he have red eyes or is that just the picture? |

Here's an effort to add a picture as promised. He's actually a bit darker than the photo

Great news, all the first hurdles over with successfully!! Did you check the shed to make sure the eyecaps and tail tip came off OK? :) |

You could offer a feed if you want to. Snakes all vary, some will eat while going through the shedding process and others won't. It won't do him any harm to try. |

hello and welcome. after the blue stage they go back to normal for around 3-6 days then shed. |

I bought the blood red. He's very good natured and doesn't seem to mind being handled at all. Unfortunately I'd handled him a couple of times before I read about leaving to settle in for 7 days. I left him alone for a while after that.
He's had afeed. That was very quick and easy.
He seems to spend nearly all of his time in his hide, though. A few days ago he went very milky. I exopected he was about to shed so left him alone. It happened a couple of days before his feed was due so I missed that feed out. That would have been last Friday. He'snow back to normal colour but I can't see any shed skin. I'm giving him a couple more days before I disturb him though.
Is all this normal?
Oh yeah. I'll try to sort some pictures soon when I know he's ok. |
