i know there is a site for royals but it wont seem to let me join so thort id ask here first...
i have an apprx 2 y/o male royal python. he started to show the initial signs of a respiritory infection*, so ive treated it and its all better now (after maybe 3 days). He is well into a shed-cycle (eyes are both completely clouded) but his skin, as well as the normal loss of hue has gone a bit saggy. he is drinking, the humidity is perfect and he is eating well, just wondered why this could be? he seems happy/normal in every other way.
*this was just a hissing, not the usual popping sounds, squeaks and open mouth associated with R/I so it was either VERY early or he was just p!55ed off lol! hoping he's ok, hes my first snake (and secretely probably my favourite  )
any advice would be great! |

hiya i am NO expert at all lol. But my royal python female Lexi has just come out of her eyese being blue and her skin is a bit saggy/loose around her neck too. Maybe a sign of ready to shed is all I can think of.

i didnt recieve an email, no. signed up to the rainbow boa one fine tho :) ill try the royal again in a minute.
I think it might be a shedding issue as the two things (baggy skin and cloudy eyes) seemed to have happened in exact correlation to each other and as he still seems active and happy...well touch wood, he's cool! cheers bud |
