Has anybody here tried using Shed-Ease by Zilla? Not sure if they sell it in the UK.
The reason I ask is I used it on 2 of my snakes and both times they shed off in one piece pretty easily. I was lucky to catch both of them while the skin just started coming off from their nose, so I gave them the bath right then and there with Shed-Ease mixed in the water. My royal that shed in pieces the last time shed in one piece this time and my hognose shed in one piece too, but he's always shed in one piece before. So, I can't really be sure if the Shed-Ease helps the snakes shed in one piece. Or maybe my royal is just happy now and would've shed in one piece anyway even without Shed-Ease.


Snake owner since Oct 2008, so yeah, I'm no expert.
