    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

problem #2!!!

a couple days ago i posted a thread about my snakes eating problem and mentioned that she had just shed. I WAS WRONG. I THOUGHT SHE HAD SHED, AND I ASKED MY MOM TO CHECK SINCE I WAS AT WORK AND SHE TOLD ME SHE DID, BUT WHEN I GOT HOME, I COULD TELL MY SNAKE DIDNT CUZ SHES STILL VERY DULL. ITS BEEN A WEEK AND HALF NOW, AND ITS NEVER TAKEN HER THIS LONG TO SHED. WHATS WRONG WITH MY BABY? PLEASE HELP. :bawling:
 
There is most likely nothing wrong with your snake. Sometimes it takes 10 days or so to go through the shedding process. The eyes "blue" over for a few days, then clear up for a few days and THEN your snake will shed.

If the skin is dry or obviously coming off in patches then you should soak your snake for a few hours and that will loosen the skin enough for you to help her shed or she can crawl out of it herself.

Can you post a pic of her? That would help as well. I wouldn't be too worried at this point.
 
not to be overly simplistic, but the easiest way to resolve the shedding question is: was there a shed skin in the enclosure or not?

NO, I DONT THINK I WOULD BE HAVING A PROBLEM IF THERE WAS. BESIDES, SHES BEEN SLEEPING FOR 9 DAYS. I JUST NEVER KNEW IT COULD TAKE UP TO TEN DAYS FOR THEM TO SHED. I GET PARANOID SOMETIMES CUZ SHES MY BABY.

GUESS WHAT! GISELLE SHED! oh, sorry starwarsdad :blowup: Anyway, shes soo beautiful. I notice that each of her shed skin is a different color. First time it was light brown, second time was green, and this time it was pinkish.
