He shed last night so I took this....



Baring in mind he is a little underweight as he has only fed once in the last ten weeks due to being a bit fruity. I getting good at getting tongue out pics lol

Yeah now if only i could get the sod to eat lol. Mind you the fact that he took a medium three weeks ago is a good sign at least he knows when to give in and eat something. It was a big meal for him as he was previously on smalls but my rep dealer told me to try a medium that way if he does take it he is gaining more weight per meal (which i thought was a sensible point) I tried him on a medium the following week and he turned his nose up and a few days ago tried a small but still nothing. He is still quite active although not as much as say a few weeks ago so hopefully he is nearing the end of his season and go back to the striking constricting dead mouse killer he was before all this kicked off.

Thanks I appreciate that knowing others think that is very reassuring. I hope he starts to eat again soon though.

Colin is looking stunning Steve, and I dont think you have to be worried about his weight at all at the moment. He is probably not eating cos he is horny and I think that they only lose a little bit of weight during that time - Kellog didnt eat for 13 weeks, and only lost 50g....and considering he was over 600g at the time wasnt much! He is now horny again, almost exactly a year later....and just over 800g - so could definitely do with losing some weight!

His colours are looking brighter and more vivid as he grows....although it being straight after a shed has obviously helped ! And another great tongue show .

Never seen it and I got two of them. Both of them seem to know when I am not around

Nice pic..!
Too bad you missed the shedding part.
I have never seen it myself.
Spaghettino never sheds in front of me anyway..
He likes being alone.

Thanks but my son should get the credit for that afterall he picked him out of about 6 corns. He also named him lol. I love his colours as he gets older the white bands around his saddles are getting less defined and he is getting more red and orange. Keeps getting better all the time lol.

He is gorgeous, beautiful colours :)

Was hatched Sept 08 so 19 months old His last shed was 40" long exactly so I think that makes him around three foot long

Haha, typical. They seem to know whats going on and time oh so perfectly lol.

I also narrowly missed reggie shedding the day we got him, was watching him explore for like half an hour then went down stairs for 10 mins come back up and there was a skin sitting there on his wood chips.

He's getting nice and chunky now, love his colours, mine will be that big someday lol.

Candy is currently in blue and caspers skin has started to dull and belly checkers gone very faded and misty so will have to get some pics up after they have shed.

You certainly are getting good at catching the tongue. The camera on my phone which i have to use at the moment is so bad that even when i catch the tongue you don't notice it lol.
