  • what od you do with the skins after they're shed? i have kept all of mine so far- but i'm running out of shelf space! great vid by the way- i love retics!

  • I keep perfect sheds to teach with. The rest I just throw away.

  • This is awesome.. Good choice of music and llighting.

  • Heheh Thank you for your kind words. I had little choice in lighting though. It was really late at night and dark, so I just shot with the light in the cage hehe.

see all

  • Excellent Video!

  • The last comment 4 this vid was 9 month ago WTF? LOL<:-) but i do appreciate everything about this vid...so im just stopping by to say hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • that video is great, but in my opinion a rougher substrate is better and more natural for the snakes. when i buy me an animal, i think about what is the best for it and not what is easier for me. some snakes like to dig and hide in the substrate, which isn't possible with newspapers as substrate. my ball python likes digging and cleaning is easy, too, it just takes a few more minutes.

  • i use newspaper as substrate cause its cheap and easy to clean but i put some lava in to aid shedding

  • its funny wathving your, i watch mine shed all the time, but your seems so gracefull about ti, mine are fast and just rub there head everywhere and have it off withing 2 mins

  • Oh..I see. I use reptile carpet for all of my larger constrictors, because it is at least somewhat abrasive and helpful with shedding, but I am sure that newspaper is easy to change..I just never got into newspaper for any of my snakes. I just hose down the Repti-Carpet and It is ready to be used again and again.
