Glad you managed to get Albion's retained shed cleaned off ok. Lets hope his next shed is a LOT better.

I'm also glad Robin managed his chick ok. I gather they are quite awkward for a snake to eat, but it's amazing what our snakes can handle. Can you ask your vet whether there is an easier way to get the multi-vits into the mouse? Are they in crushed tablet form?

So how are you doing it?? Could you maybe add a tiny bit of water to make it into a paste, then slit the stomach and put it in there? Not sure I'd like to stick a capsule up a mouse's bottom !! It's amazing what you find yourself doing for the sake of your snakes.
