Hey everyone. I recently bought (a month ago) a 30" male garden-phase ATB. Vicious little bastard too :) Anyway he started to shed (glazed eyes) perhaps a week ago. He is shedding in patches and now looks kind of wrinkled/creased.
He is housed in a 27 gallon tall aquarium. Substrate is mixed cypress mulch and that expandable dirt stuff, with moss. There is a large plastic plant and an extremely convuluted piece of grapevine (lots of splits and twists).
I mist once a day. I do also own a Rainbow boa and a Yellow anaconda, so I am no stranger to high-humidity herps.
Any suggestions?
