So all my sheds have been perfect from both snakes uptill last night. Motley shed last night sometime which I missed yet again. But this time it was all bunched up and inside out. Is this normall? Obviously wanting to make sure the recaps where there I gently unraveled it b4 taking a picture. They were there but I saw a few holes in the shed long the body. Like I said all sheds have been gd till now just wondering if this is normall .

some times their shed does bunch up. As long as it's all come off the snake I wouldn't worry too much, although it is a pain trying to unroll them so that you can check eye capes are there! If any shed has been retained let Motley run through a damp towel that should help remove it.

Bunched up is not a problem When it's bunched up and you're in the middle of unravelling it when a huge pile of stinky poop lands in your lap, now that is a problem
