| Last year when Sid went through his breeding mood he refused to eat for 3 months and did not shed during this time either. When he finally shed it was stuck and he needed help. After this all sheds were fine for him. This year once again he didn't eat for 3 months and when he shed, again it was stuck. Is this because of the lack of moisture he would normally get from eating? Just curious really. |

| he might not be drinking much while he's fasting, if he does it every year it might be worth adding a damp hide when he's due a shed.......does the problem shedding resolve as the year progresses? |

| Yes I will make a point of doing that next year. I was just wondering if there was a particular reason for this happening? Maybe its just one of his little ways lol. |
