Hi guys, so wanted to know if anyone elses corns have had an bad shed experience recently. Venom shed last night, now he is not normally a great shedder even with soaking and moss hides, but last night it was just coming off him in bits, since then iv had him in a warm bath to get the rest of the shed off but this one has been really bad for him, even if it is bad he usually managed to get the shed off by himself.

I as thinking it may have been the warm dry weather that we've had that could of caused this or if it is something i have done

Kellogs needs a moss hide when really hot weather, so not your fault, just give her one next time, if needs all the time, then all you can do is provide it, hope for the best

I just have - for the first time, in 2 an a half years of snake keeping. It was on my newbie rehome, so could have been all the stresses of move - but he shed in lots of bits, and I had to remove a small stuck piece off him. Funnily enough, the general humidity was quite high, and I'd sprayed his viv, but didn't give him a moist hide ( will do next time, after this ).

I don't think it's anything you've done wrong, you've already given him a moist hide... it could well be the weather.
