Cool stuff hozy, a slough is great to watch. I considered one of Kens Crosses but went for a Darwin instead. :wink:

Don't hold your breath mate, they always seem to do it when your not around, its quite a spectacle though so keep a good eye on it...

RE: Re: first slough

sure will even if i stay up all night lol maby not all night but close to it. hehehe

yea then i can measure the skin and see how long he is if its still intact after the shed

 

[childreni_440]

RE: Re: first slough

The skin will be longer then the snake.

 

[ozherpconservation]

If you want to see how long he is you need to measure the snake, not the skin. The skin stretches when they slough.
