Hola!

I just had such a "religious" experience..! I came back home after being away for 3 days, first thing I did was check on my little one for I left her in blue and was afraid she would have shed in my absence and even more, drearing she would have had a bad shed because I wasn't able to rise the humidity level to where I wanted it before leaving.

So there she was, with the head out of her old skin, looking at me. I thought she had only shed the head and that she was having trouble getting off the rest of the skin, so I took a look at Love's book (at "shedding" obviously) and when I looked back into the viv she was working her way out of her skin easily. So it seems I intruded when she had just started shedding, and I got to see the most of it. The best part is that she wasn't bothered at all that I was there, looking at her. Magical.

And now, for your viewing pleasure, some pics of my literally just-shed baby:

No doubt it's a Ghost corn snake, right? (No doubt I am obsessed with nailpolish also, but that's another story).

And the yellow is starting to peek in her neck...



Even Discordia made me a present this year. Oh yeah!

Well done catching her shed I've been lucky enough to catch Falco shedding just the once, but it's such an amazing thing to see that I'll never forget it. She's looking great in her new skin
