Posted by DeltaWoods on May 15, 2003 at 14:52:51:

Last night my ball python tried to shed but it got messed up. There were pieces of skin everywhere in the tank. A lot of the skin is still stuck to him in large amounts. His tail was totally shed but most of his body was still covered. I have been spraying his tank for the past few days so i dont think he was too dry but i guess thats probably what the problem is. I gave him a warm bath this afternoon and tried to ease off some of the large pieces of skin that were hanging off. I called the vet but he wont be around for another half hour. I am really worried does anyone know what i should do now? He doesnt seem to be trying to get the skin off himself either. He didnt seem very stressed when i gave him the bath or anything he was as calm as usual so i dont think he is very stressed out right now but i cant be sure. If anyone has any ideas please post them as soon as possible. thanks
