Heres a pic of my Eddys skin, when stretched out fully it measures 5 feet, i didnt think he was that long, does the skin stretch on removal?



Heres a nice pic of Ed on my messy bedroom floor. he likes hiding under clothes so i spread some out for him, notice the bra?!!!

Yep it streches as it comes off. Take away 10% of the skins length to find the snakes length.

I always thought 10 percent as well, but thinking that the bigger the snake, the greater the stretch.
Kelloggs last good shed was 5ft 11 inches. His length when measuring him the other day was 4ft 8.

/edit

Only just realised that works out about right.
