My baby royal has baggy skin on parts of her body. Is there a reason for this? There is nothing wrong with her is there? |

Tig's skin is like that, looser just behind his head and on his belly. The rest of his body is as solid as a brick, but you can still move the skin around a bit. I think as long as it doesn't look loose and rinkly around her sides then it should be fine. But I understand that they can get loose skin before they shed too, sometimes, so could that be it? |

Not sure about the STD bit but they have a layer of fat you can feel between the skin and the muscles, I was amazed how chunky and how much movement there is in the skin, specially compared to the corn snake, their scales dont feel quite as rigid and smoother too. |

Yeah that's what I mean. It's not baggy like loose. It's like not tight on her belly near her head |

I think royal skin in general is not a tight and rigid as corn snake skin if thats what you mean. |

I thought baggy skin was a sign of dehydration?
