I think I've seen it before but not really checked it out, never knew it look like that! I don't like when my snakes realign there jaws, it always gets me off guard and spookes me....

Well *cough* you could try roach mush......... or how about silkie mush?

Yeah I know how you feel, really I just want Tigger to calm down. He always uses my hands as a treadmill, digs on my couch and in his cage,and always flips his water bowl! he's just a crazy teenage Tegu

what can I say?

Tigger is exactly the opposite, he's always out snooping about only heading into his hide to take quick naps or completly sleep for the night.

He's shedding!

I gave him a bath in the kitchen sink this afternoon. I checked on him an hour later and he's peeling from the back of his head down to his shoulders. One big piece so far. I'll post a few pics later. Got some good ones.

Update!!! He shed in one piece except for his head (hasn't come off yet and his right foot! That's a keeper!

Here he is running away over my wifes shoulder! There wasn't one word of the following conversation that could be repeated here. My BRB got away 2 days ago. I'm going to setup some warm hides tonight to hopefully attract her.

One piece shed.

Here's our biggest BD having a complete body shed in one piece.

Oreo had his second shed on Sunday.

He's about 4 months old now. He's gone from 45g to 90g in the past 5 weeks eating (2) "stuffed" & dusted fuzzy mice every 2-3 days. It's the only thing he will eat on his own. And he really likes then. I give him his plate at about 5:45am and they're gone if I blink!

Here are some pics I took today.
