Lol - typical rat/corn enquiring/grumpy look - blesss him!

That viv was one of the best shedding ones I've seen - it's amazing when they trust you enough to do that, and the close-up of the muscle contractions - incredible!

I was pouring a beer at the time and I was so enthralled, it nearly got out of the glass!

thanks, he always looks grumpy and usually is.
hes was extremly calm an didnt try to get away while i has restraing his head to get the skin loose.
since his RI an bad sheds when i first had him hes very trusting when i have to help him with sheds ect.
was very cool having him shed in my hand instead of me rolling the skin back, couldnt pass up on the chance of videoing it
