My big boy was very blue for the last couple days, and this morning he is fresh and bright. I can't find the shed anywhere in his enclosure, even went through the substrate. Has anyone had their Royal eat their shed?? |

Hi he has probably cleared up, which means he'll shed in the next couple of days. When I got my first royal he cleared up and I wondered what happened an was then informed that this happens before they actually shed... Ive been told that now would be the best time to up the humidity a little  |

Yup - this what's known as 'clearing', as Austin says. The snake looks back to normal, but the skin still has to come off - probably in the next day or two. And yes, stick the water bowl in the hot end for a bit more humidity.
I thought the same thing with one of my corns when first owning snakes - thought she must have scoffed her shed like a lizard. |

| Phew! Humidity is up. Thanks Austin and BATS. Couldn't figure out why he was so bright. I hadn't noticed that in anyone else or him before either. Have a great day! |
