I am taking this a a huge personal victory in winning over Duke. The last shed he went through he hissed and struck out and was generally not a happy snake, I was doing his spot check and he was been nice, I gently lifted him up and he was very calm, quick check, everything back in the viv, job done.

| I saw Duke's belly go about a week ago, just a pink tint, he went blue a few days ago and I think he is at the peak of his blueness at the moment. Duke likes to take his time over shedding. |

| You can try it, as its his first shed it will be a learning experience for you. I offered Duke a meal when he was shedding but he refused it, I didn't offer him anything then so he didn't eat all through shedding and then at his next due feed after shedding he refused too, but the week after he went back to feeding. Best bet, try it and see what happens, if he refuses then you'll know for next time to not waste food when shedding. |

He looks great - mean, moodyblues and magnificent!
Yeah, some will eat while in blue, some not ...but they're never consistent, mind you ...all the best with Zac's shed, Laws - looks like he's growing up. |
