[XxjbroxX]

[Eminemdude333]

the pillow case is a very good idea

[Thechaterboxes]

Its so cool how he has some sort of checkered design underneath.

[thatfineb78]

Is a 2 foot black and tan poisonous or not???

[MrOwenage]

Animal cruelty much

[PSTRIPPLEE]

Whats the name of this snake? cause it looks baddass at the bottom it has the chest checkers

[HuntForWaffles]

@PSTRIPPLEE Hes a miami phase cornsnake. I have one too, and yes the checkers are pretty badass

:]

[JuggaloReal]

i have a hatchling reverse okeetee corn snake, and he went from his usual colors to his shedding colors. I have never seen him shed and I am excited, but a day later his color returned to normal......any advice?

[Slither1231]

haha.... dipped in milk :D

[cornsnakekid101]

well it's a bit of a problem but it's not gonna kill him all u need to do is get a tuber-ware box and fill it with a kinda moss from a pet shop then get it wet but squees the water out then put him in for half an hour but put air hole in the box

[XxxPisidonxxX]

I have a ball python but the last couple times it has shed it hasn't all come off in one piece and it has taken it a while to get all of its skin off. Is this a problem?

[weedClouds4life2]

@XxxPisidonxxX same with my corn snake i think its because it doesnt have enough humidity but idk i no expert

[Themrcj2012]

@XxxPisidonxxX no

[Kalkara92]

btw my snake is a corn snake

[Kalkara92]

i got a problem my snake turned white i guess it was his time to shed....but after 2 days or so it turned to its normal colour but it didnt shed ..... do i have to be worried ? also he seems to be very lazy these days all he does is stay where i placed his heat mat all the time .... very urgent please comment back

[XxThisIsWhatIThinkxX]

@Kalkara92 No, it's not a problem. My corn snake does the same thing. Your snake will become cloudy, turn normal, then shed a few days later. Perfectly normal. :) (I know this comment is late ^.^;)

[Kalkara92]

@XxThisIsWhatIThinkxX lol dw it shed yesterday a started mating with the female lol guess he needs to get back in the game xD

[Snakesfan09]

@muvatrucker no they only turn blue when they are getting ready to shed there skin.

[Muvatrucker]

i recently bought an amel albino corn snake and i think it might be starting to shed but does the eyes go blue even for albinos ?

[kaleluk31]

is it true that if it doesnt shad right that you can put it in a damp pillow case for 20 mins?

[Pyrodog12]

@TempterOfFate09 according to my book I just got (:3) it takes between 7-10 days to shed, so if it hasn't happened by now, give it another 10, just to be safe, before going crazy.

[Trippinpatchouli]

@TempterOfFate09 it could be under the ground cover?

[kurtisraimusic]

Will there scales like pop out? And eye colour change!?

[sk8rock666]

i fed my snake yesterday on today it started to have the blue eyes can someone tell me when its gonna shed or somthing this is my first time my snake gonna shed since i got it 3 weeks ago ty

[wingedsweetheart]

Everyone talks about the blue eye phase but only snakes with black or dark colored eyes will appear blue during shed. If your snake has red eyes then in shed they will appear pink. If you snake has even lighter eyes like my first corn why has light pink eyes then in shed pink eyes look almost completely white. Other than eyes the snake has on overall faded look and if you feel the skin it reminds me of the snake wearing panty hoes lol. As in you can feel the loose skin over the snakes body.

[bendybob4]

thats such a cute snake

[XxMalwareRemoverXx]

@piano22182 Thank You!

[XxMalwareRemoverXx]

Guys heres ho how to speed up snake shedding. Get a tuberware container, cut a hole in the top. Now put some terrarium moss in it and pour water until all the moss is wet, and their is a little water on the bottom (room temperature water). Put the Tupperware container in the cage and make sure it is low enough for your snake to get in there. Leave that in the cage, and moisten it when it gets dry. This is an amazing trick, respond to this message if this works for you!

[partyninja39]

wats the morph

[KBstreetart]

is it normal for people to keep the shed skin? is that not a little wierd isnt that like keeping your dead skabs from your cuts?

[jewelyn90]

i bought a corn snake around 4 weeks ago, and the owner told me he was going to shed the week i bought him but he still hasnt! should i be worried? my snake isnt acting ill he is very very lively!

please respond :)

[Roguelaudatscott]

dont be worried, snakes will often shed when it is time too, when he /she gets dull in colour you know its time. My Pyhtonic Fireayra is going in shed right as we speak. good luck. Don't worry too much

[JRock90210]

No that is fine, trust me. Nobody can really tell when a snake is going to shed, but he should shed soon if he is a baby. Hope this helps ;)

[killkayla]

my uncle died and left me a male corn snake that is 6 ft long and 9 years old. ive never had a snake before. it lives in a 55gal tank with a heating pad under part of it, it has a water dish to swim in and drink from. but i dont know what else to do. do i feed it rats or mice? and how much, how often? anything else im missing???

PLEASE HELP !!!!!

[ukaakuakuuka]

feed it either live, freshly killed, or frozen mice. 1 every two weeks or 10 days. that's it.

[reptilemad43]

lol owned ok here we go feed it a large mouse onece a week you know how big the pray item u need to feed it by the girth

(fattest bit in the middle of the snake) if the size of that should be the size food you feed it make sure when it is in shed make the tanke humid and give it a humid hide you will know it is in shed when it'seyes go blue or gray when its eyes clear he will shed within 24hours hope this helped :)

[Vieteran09]

my jungle carpet python is goin thru her shedding process , i notice her skin if loose n flabby is this normal.?

[andycoe1]

mines only got a little bit of skin come off. it been hidin in the wood chips and it aint been eating woke up this mornin theres 1 or 2 bits of skin in the chippins wot do i do is it about to shed.

[lolzomfg0rz]

i thought my snake was ill... for quite a few days its been in the cold area in its viv, and hasn't moved for days... just hiding under a log... normally it will just move all the time... but today i woke up to find it had shedded... first time i seen it

[tubegamesproductions]

iguanas like there sheding skin picked off, do snakees like that or should i let it shed on its own?

[vicki63g]

i think your supposed to let them do it themelves.

[yoipod46889]

can u put a snake in an attic? except for winter ofcourse (my mother is very afraid of snakes so i hav to put it in the attic and care for it when im home and when she isnt watching)

[eliotchew]

My Moms Afraid Of Snakes She Doesnt Mind It In My Bedroom But If You Was 2 Put It In The Attic It Must Have A Strong Lid Locked Doors And Check Them Every Couple Of Hours And Making Sure No Other Animal ( Mice Rats ) Rodents Could May Get In And Harm Your Snake And Make Sure You Check The Temperature Of It Every Hour

[slyrez]

do snakes sleep wioth their eyes open if they have no eyelids

[cornmad99]

yeah, their pupils just go smaller as to let in less light.

[eliotchew]

Yh They Sleep With Half A Black Thing Over There Eyes Lol

[jharrod123]

you're retarded

[Yousufbholat95]

Will it shed on its own and does it need a big container?

[IRISHREPTILEZ92]

probably but i doubt it'll need a fuckin pillowcase jeez they need to keep a lock on the psychiatric ward!!!!!! lol

[LoveOlderWomen]

they say that a snake sheds its skin because it's growing bigger... but my snake never shed it's skin though it often grow bigger :P

[mmgmm1]

what a bitch

[xbattergirlx]

do snakes close their eyes to go to sleep?

[ItsTimothy]

snakes dont have eyelids

[xbattergirlx]

my snake has shedded 3 times already

(and she just shedded yesterday)

[monstermash012]

when they go pale dose it happen all over or just a the body plz reply.

[pancakeb0b2323]

When they're about to sed, they look really dull and their eyes cloud over and look blue.

[onormichi]

i just read you should feed them in a seperate tank so they know better and dont bite u

[AmirOwnsu]

fucking bitch

[XJesta666X]

LOL

[blackandwhitedream]

Is it just me or does everything she say just sound wrong?

[horselove1230]

Ik this isn't the rite video to comment but im going to say it anyways. you dont feed yur snake in its cage becuz then when you try to pick it up it will bite yur fingers becuz they're mistaking them for a rat.

[antz1916]

no thats not true, you dont feed your snake by hand, you use a pair of forceps or tweezers to feed your snake inside the tank, this helps the snake settle and get the idea that his tank is the best place to be.

[horselove1230]

you put them in a paper bag (grocery bag) and THEN let them eat!

[treetheoak]

is it all right if i just leave my snake in his tank and wait an hour or so?

(hes the only snake in hte tank and his dish is large enough for him)

[ortega6102]

it doesnt matter wether they go to either or the mouse has the same nutrients

[sawickisarah]

i have a corn snakes thay are the best snake ever

[iizandy]

can anyone help me? my snake is only after shedding about 2 days ago and i noticed it has some skin left on its head. im wondering is this anything to worry about or will i need some help? can anyone help me ? thanks

[snakeman109]

WHAT MORPH IS THAT CORN

[mmgmm1]

shes a stupid idiot

[MikeMoldao]

I have a corn snake :D got her 2 days ago :)

[ihatepanda]

blue yed snake? its called milky eyes...

[Monomarshmellow]

ohmygodddddd i love snakes

i'm gonna get oneeeeeeeee

[CANDYSNAKE]

Yea if yyou changing to live feeed when there young its ok, but I wouldn't once they get past the fuzzy stage. The snake wont be used to eatting live and if you put a hopper, or rat in with a snake thats used to eatting frozen the snake will prob. lose the fight. It won't be used to grabbing the mouse/rat and they'll get bit.

[CorinnaXcool]

I LOOOOVE SNAKES.

i'm trying to convince my mom to buy me a corn snake, but she doesnt like the fact that they eat live mice.

[CANDYSNAKE]

Only corn snakes that are raised on live feed should eat live feed. Most corn snakes you buy in a pet store are raised on dead feed and you shouldn't feed them live mice/hoppers/rats because there not used to killing there food. plus the mice/hoppers/rats will kill the snake.

[lilyunderbedstudios]

i just got a pet corn snake after wanting one for four years!

[alexdahley11]

my corn snake cant shed the end of its tail i dont no what to do i am a very expireced snake handeler but iv put him in water

[CANDYSNAKE]

There a shed spray you should be able to get at your local pet shop that sells snakes. You just spray it on the snake and it will help the snake shed.

[pagan140]

yh moist moss is best so ive hered from experts.

[TexasStunter]

when my snakes shed and they are having trouble i put them in a box of moist moss and that helps them

[nokaxlyzard]

pillow case???

a wet pillow case makes it hard for air to circulate - the snake will have trouble breathing in there!

it is great for transportation but come on...

[ItsTheOlivia]

just make sure your snake has water while shedding and a rough object to rub against for support and comfort for the snake!

[cornsnakes23]

ya i just put him in a tub with a little water before he sheds which he is about to now

[jen1302]

My snakes shed there skin in there viv about every 4-6 weeks without any problems and neither one of snakes ain't agressive when shedding.

I place my snakes in a pillow case very gently when i clean there viv.

[m14assault]

wat i do for monty, my ball python is i let him craw or dip him in a warm, not not too hot or cold water in the sink, just deep enough tat it covers his whole body. and i juss put him there for like 2 -5 min. then put him back in the cage. yeah... ball pythons look really dry when u dun give him water when its shedding

[molestedbymyself]

My cornsnake absolutely HATES being put into a pillow case. It really depends on the animal...I suppose. I tried it once to transport him and he started to flip out. Now, I just stick him in my coat, and he's happy with that.

[Niklagi]

like in ur pocket? lol

[Louloute80]

Very interesting. Thank you.

[indiomanmando]

dude!! that cant be good for the snake, being put in a pillow case?? that sounds scary llol

[QuteRaptorXori]

lol i know it sounds wierd but there is really susprising but the best way to handel or transport a snake is in a bag but just to be careful the teeth dont get caught... oh and btw dont DONT put a sheading snake in a small place EVER because each snake has a similar technique to shed and it does need space the best thing to do for a sheding snake is put it in a box with no other snakes and nothing in the box other than water and snakes get really agressive when they are sheding

[mudvaynechic75110]

This comment confuses me on two levels. (lol)

1) Don't get the teeth caught? Why would the teeth be exposed in the first place?

2)I would NOT reccomend putting any snake in a box with just water. I don't know about your snake...but mine can't swim. Instead, when my (corn)snake Freya is having trouble shedding, I put a towel in a (rubbermaid or sterilite) container and put just enough tepid water in to wet the whole towel. Then, pop in the snake and close the lid.

[Chrome77]

this woman is so fucking annoying. her voice does my head in, she just seems so dull errgh.....

[SnAkEMaN2k7]
