I have had Khan for 6 months and he has settled in well. He is 18 months old. He has been feeding, shedding and pooping fine and active at night. He last fed last Thursday and since then has shown signs of going into shed. I have checked temps which are all as they should be and have increased humidity. Over the last 2 days he has just stayed in his hide and I have not noticed him moving. Can this be normal or should I be worried? He is my first snake so just need a pointer of anything I can do or if there may be a problem. Thanks in advance x |

Only one of mine, Sas, roams his viv, usually wrecking it in the process! The other 2 like hiding in their houses. I occasionally see Boris going from one end to the other but Ria is like a phantom! |

Royals love to cause us panic ...we have 3 and you only usually ever see one (climbing his vines lol) the rest you start seeing closer to feeding day  our boas on the other hand...well let's just say we are always being watched and not very discreetly! |

Yip thats perfectly normal as already said :) wish my royals were atleast a little active :) lol 99.9% of the time the only moving my lot do is from there hot to cool hide and vise-versa lol they may become active at night but i never se them lol royals are not very good display snakes i love my boa's for that they are always out and sitting up on there ledge watching everything that goes on outside there viv :) |

As evo has said, perfectly normal routine for a pre-shed royal. Always remember that they get a kick out of stressing us out. |

Thankyou, he has shed since he's been with me but didn't notice him being so inactive before. As I'm a novice just wanted some reassurance. :) |

Perfectly normal for them to stay in there hides while there shedding
Nothing to worry about |
