Need advice about my Ball python.he's shedding and I'm traveling??
I have been traveling(moving) and I have my snake in a pillow case.It's time for him to shed ( his eyes are hazed).Can he shed in a pillowcase or dose he need rocks or something to help him?I'm worried about him.
Your snake can shed just fine in a pillowcase. Contrary to popular belief, snakes do NOT need anything rough to rub up against in order to shed. I breed Ball Pythons and must of my snakes usually shed in their hides just by movement alone. I'll end up with a perfect shed all rolled up that resembles a rolled condom.
I'm not sure how long your snake will be in transit, but hopefully it won't be more than a couple of days. Not because of the shed, but because of the stress on the snake. If your snake is blue, you might be okay until you reach your destination. If it's coming out of blue, they you will probably have a day or two before he sheds. If that's the case, just dampen the pillowcase slightly, and your snake shed just fine. Make sure it's not kept too cold or too warm, otherwise he might end up with a respiratory infection due to the high humidity, stress, and extreme temperatures (extreme to him).
Good luck!
