Afternoon everyone,

Just a quicky please as Custard has now cleared after being blue.

Last time Custard shed she stayed in her hide to shed and got herself in a right old pickle and the time before she wrapped herself round all the decoration in her viv so the shed ended up in about 7 pieces which made it very difficult to find the eye caps and tail. Would it be ok to remove the hides and some of the decoration until she has shed. She will still have the log and the trailing plants in the 2 corners where the hides are so she can still hide away

Jane.

Hi Mamma

she doesn't retain any shed she just gets it tangled round the decoration and it ends up being torn into pieces or like last time she got herself tangled up in it because she stayed in the hide while she shed.
