castas had her second in less than 2 weeks (granted she does have a graze on her tail) didn't even notice till i tried to feed her and found the head skin. a question, how long do they usually take to get out of their skins? her head complete with eye caps i found yesterday morning. theres plenty in there that she can rub on but she [prefers to sit under hir damp hide. how long should i leave it before giving her a hand? any ideas? just plain worried coz i'm knew to this.

cheers

They should not take long to shed, mine only take about 5 minutes to squiggle out their skin.

That is brilliant! Perhaps sticky for new users? I've not got a snow but I've found it really useful!

I definitely think this should be stickied - and the other shedding sticky removed as it has no pics now so is pretty much useless! This is useful for all morphs, not just snows!

Edit: Sorry, I didn't mean the written shedding thread by Kelloggs, I meant the picture one by the no-longer-a-member person lol!

Realy useful guide, when my snow had its first shed i was concerned by the rough flaking apperance of the skin as it differed from my other corns , but reading this i have realised everything she did was normal. Thanks

This is a great thread, maybe a sticky would be good, esp for new snow owners ? :)
