    Hi Joss! I wanted to leave a comment saying thank you! I've watched your videos since before I was married and my husband and I got a snake and you've walked me through so much with her. When she first got home we upgraded her case to 20lb from maybe 10lb. We should have given her time o adjust but so happy to have her we ended up stressing her out. Her sheds were terrible too and took over a week to come off her face... but Today we found her on her greenery scratching and saw a nearly full shed in her case!! I'm so happy you're a UA-camr, everything I've walked my husband through doing (I'm pregnant so my maternal instincts actually have me a little nervous to hold our pretty baby) has definitely improved her health! My favorite suggestion is the hydrometer (gyrometer?) . I used to think if it looked humid it was, but the humidity almost never changes. It was eye opening really and got me looking into her case every day. Even when I'm too tired to stand up hehe.... so thanks Joss!! Fern is so happy today her shed came off a foot long!

    My royal python Ezron (only had him a week) is very nice and gentle. He is almost done his shed but I tried to handle him and got a light hiss. Not aggressive but just letting me know "hey, I'm uncomfortable right now please leave me alone." so my question is: has this happened to you before and do you handle your snakes while they are in shed?

    • @JossersJungle
      @JossersJungle  7 років тому +11

      Hi Terrance! Great question! I usually don't handle my snakes when they are in shed, unless I have a good reason for it. They can get a little grumpy and I'm guessing it's slightly uncomfortable going through a shed. I haven't experienced any direct aggressive behaviour in my snakes. My best advice would be to leave them alone until they are done shedding :-)

    I have a baby ball python and he shed twice, both times that he’s shed it’s been in little pieces all over the cage and his head has never stoped shedding. I’m really scared that his humidity is low in his glass terrarium so I moved his bowl onto his heating pad and changed where his hide went(witch is no longer over the heating pad) and I put a towel over the humid side of his terrarium. I also want to use a humidity box when he sheds and I just wanted to know if all of these changes will work and be good for my snake. Thank you so much you have really helped me feel more confident with the health of my snake. 😊

    Snake skins are really good for hermit crabs, so I've been saving and giving them to a friend of mine who has a bunch. My snake is a rescue who had been exclusively having small piece sheds and with me has only had sheds in one big piece. I'm very proud of how well she's doing now. I might keep the next one though!

    So my Amazon tree boa is about to shed, dull colour and bluish eyes. Just wondering if it's common for them to hide for a couple of days, he has been in his hide for soon 3 days? The humidity is fine, and I can see he has been changing positions. For how long is it common for them to hide in the same spot while in shedding? Thanks for an awsome channel.

    My new retic (had since july) gets super inactive while going into shed. I get so paranoid that something is wrong. Seems like she is shedding too often but I guess it's cuz she's growing like crazy! She is super gentle and lets me reach in and pet her while she's sitting there all depressed lookin.

    Hi, I have a question. I have had my ball python for exactly a month now. He has eaten 3 times, pooped once, and seems to be very healthy and active. My humidity ranges between 50-70%.
    I read that ball pythons often shed every 3 weeks. But, it's been a whole month, and he has not shed at all or shown any signs of being in shed. Is it normal for them to go a while without shedding? He is still a baby by the way.

I see his eyes getting cloudy but he has been rubbing his face all over the tank the last few nights, do you think he is getting ready to shed?

    Jossers Jungle,
    I know this video was made a few months back but I have a question.
    I got a female pastel ball python a little over a month ago.
    She has started to shed about six days ago.
    This is my first time with her shedding, and I guess I'm a little nervous.
    Like I said, it's been six days and she still hasn't shed her head part. (I guess that's what you would call it. I don't know how else to say it.)
    I don't know if I'm over-reacting, but I mist her terrarium everyday, and have a big enough water bowl for her to fit in.
    Do you have any suggestions?

    Hi my snake, has been perfectly fine and eating, pooping and now shedding. But this was his first shedd with me and now the day after he is overactive in his cage. Is this normal or is he now considered stressed? Because he has a heatmat with thermostat so his "hotspot" is the temperature he needs.

    So I have my first snake and he is a baby Darwin python. He is having his 2nd shed but first with me. It looks like there is a lot of shed from his bell to tail but none above, I thought it was weird so I gave him a soak, not for to long, but after the shed was really coming off, but not in one piece, I think maybe it was because I was handling him (I’m not gonna touch him till his done now) and maybe some rips happen. When he was sliding back in to his tank the shed was coming of on my hand on his tail and it came off all in one piece, I have looked at so many videos but nothing similar came up. What do you think this could be? What should I do? (Already misting his enclosure)

    Hi. Hope you can help me even if this comment is so late. I've noticed that my bps skin went ever so slightly kinda "translucent" or dull for a few days. But I just saw the tell tale signs today like the eyes and extremely dull skin. I just want to know if it is too late to soak him in warm water? Is he past that stage? Or is it to late to maybe mist a bit? This is my first shed and I dunno what to do. I just want my baby's skin to be soft. So can I soak or mist? Or is it too late?

I've tried removing it but he isn't reacting well to it and I'm not sure this is the right action to take. Even soaking hasn't loosened it up enough to remove it, if it even is removable.

    Hi! Love ur videos so much and very helpful!! I am a newbee!! My young ball python looked like she was about to shed about 3 days ago. Blue eyes dull color all the signs. This morning I went to check on her and she looks as if she shed but there is no shed in the tank. Can this be a sign of something else like illness?

      Kasy Sibley I think usually when pbs are about to shed, or really any snake, it looks more dull and foggy and then can clear up. Usually shedding occurs within the next couple of days after the "clear up" I've heard it's very normal

    When your snake goes into shed are you supposed to peel of the shed? Or does she mean unroll it once it is off the snake?

    • @JossersJungle
      @JossersJungle  7 років тому +6

      The snake will get the shed of by itself. There is no need to peel it off, unless it is a bad shed and it already tried to get it off by itself, then something can be stuck and you will have to give a hand. But a healthy snake kept in a proper setup will have no trouble shedding it all of in one big beautiful piece. You will mostly have to unroll it yourself after the snake gets it off, by sometimes they also do leave an unrolled shed for you to just take out :-)

    Humidity is only partly the issue. Hydration is also very important. It has been shown that tropical snakes absorb a significant amount of moisture from the atmosphere, whereas dersert dwellers do not. It isn’t true that the pattern is always visible on the shed: this depends on the species. It is very important to check that both eyecap scales have shed: if one or both has been retained, these need ro be removed, and if you have not done this, it is best to get help from a vet. The tail is also important: if the skin is retained here, the snake can end up losing part of its tail due to loss of blood supply.

    My boy is finally shedding for me! He shed right before I got him, which was about a month ago, on May 2nd. He ate two and a half weeks after getting him, and I was wondering when he would shed next. I noticed he wasn’t nearly as active at night as he usually is, he’s a total klutz and even when I don’t see him out I can hear him crunching along the leaves or falling off his log 😂
    Update/ Edit: so his first shed a month ago was a little rough which I expected. He had some stuck shed on his neck which I soaked to help him get it off but luckily his eye caps came off just fine on their own! He just shed for me today as I’m currently writing this and it came off in almost a full complete piece except a little bit at the tip of his tail that broke off on its own! But overall I’m so happy his shed has improved! I’m hoping for a complete full shed next time!

    Do you have to keep a shed? Why do you unroll it? How do you dispose of it?

    Is it important to keep the shed? I usually don't bother un-rolling the shed and throw it away. I can tell very quickly if it's a healthy shed or not.
