6 weeks is fine, depending on how big they are and how fast they are growing. It'll come soon, Don't worry  |

The only thing you can do is bath him really. Sometimes it helps.
Don't worry too much. Shedding does take time, but snakes usually sort themselves out in their own time. |

Excellent, my cat has never shown any interest in any of my tanks or viv. Everry so often she'll see them moving, but will have a glance then lay back down as if to say, 'pfft snakes behind glass, not very fun'.
The only time she was interested in any of my tanks was when she found out how lovely and warm the lid of my fish tank was.
But, I love my lazy cat too. |

Effie has now come out of hiding going round and round like a mad thing all shinnining again but NO SIGN OF ANY SHEDDING shall we feed him now or will he still shed?
by the way GIZZY IS HAPPY to have his friend back |

Sounds as if he'll shed today or tomorrow, they become a bit more active right before.
It's weird about the cat thing. The only interest any of my snakes have made of other pets is Nagini eyeing up the goldfish. Don't think she's really interested in being friends with them though  |
