I've had my royal a month tomorrow
He'll have fed 4 times when he's fed tomorrow
He's about 3 yrs old I believe and just over 3ft long
How often do they shed and what are the signs? he has what looks like a small patch of dry skinn on his head |

Check the shed to see if they are there. Well done on the feed and you deserved the bite  |

he fed on a jumbo mouse last night, as I had the mouse in my hand and opened the glass door he struck and got me on the hand, my first bite!!! It didn;t hurt but brought a load of blood!!! poor thing its my fault i suppose and I;ll never do that with a mouse in my hand again
how do you know if the eye caps are done? |

After the eyes and skin clear a bit you're looking at up to 7 days for the shed. |

If it's three years old you may find sheds are quite a while apart as it all depends on how much they are growing |

was going to feed him tonight his first rat or at least attempt to but removed his house and his eyes are all cloudyand skin dull classic signs of imminent shed by all accounts.
should I wait till skin is shed or feed as normal, this will be his first shed with me so all new to me |

ha ha cheers for the posts, the only thing preventing me getting more at moment is a wife!! just got his lovely new viv today, so much better than the glass tank he was in, just finished setting it up and with a bit of luck he will settle nicely in there and prosper, just got to sort the rat feeding out!!! |

First guaranteed sign of a shed upcoming really is cloudy eyes, they then go clear and they shed usually within a week of that. |
