LOL well as it happens Colin is in the pink as we speak so any day now it could be although I am expecting a long night so it may be a 2lt bottle or even a demijohn with the way my bladder is lol |

I saw Kellog shed a few times when we first got him but then he started shedding at night, until his last one. I thought he looked a bit active so was watching him, knock on front door, go to answer it and let friend in, come back and there is a bright shiny Kellog and a full shed wrapped forlornly around his branches (it was a real pain getting it out especially as he kept trying to escape at the same time!).
Had never seen Silvesta shed as he always did it in the couple of hours between me going back to bed at about 5am and getting up at 7am! Then the shed before last I was just about to go up and heard movement, so I was really excited and looked in....he was in a terrible state with it all ragged around his head and not coming off clean at all. I am just so glad I was there as I was able to get him out and run him through damp towels to help him get most of it off. It was only the first third of his body that was a problem and he actually shed the last lot in my hands....an amazing feeling. Since then he has shed again and you guessed it, it was done during those couple of hours I was in bed! But a full clean shed which is all I cared about.
Its a corn conspiracy I tell you  , to stop us witnessing them do such an amazing thing....'walking' out of their old skin!

I wouldnt be surprised if you do just that Elament! You will have to let us know how it goes next time one of them sheds (although we wont need all the details....you can leave out the bit that includes the lemonade bottle  !!)

Im sure we'll see the whole thing from start to finish some day. I think i am most likely to see it with Reggie, he tends to shed around 2 days after coming out of blue and normly does it in the night rather than early morning like the other 2. |

I've partially caught Reggie shedding twice, but never seen the whole thing start to finsih and have never had a glimpse of the other 2.
Rocky is currently in Blue, this will be his 1st shed with me, and since he is quite active i wonder if he'll let me wath? |
