Your shed is NOT a tunnel...

Anyone ever have their snake shed, and then even before they are done, re-enter the shed as if it was a tunnel and go through the whole thing? These were taken with different cameras...I had to break the shed because I thought he might get stuff and suffocate or something...

Might be common, not sure...
Anyway, take a look...

BLESS!!!!!!! that is soo cute! i never heard of that before now, sounds cool though. Wish my snake (Salsa) would do that, looks funny! :):D:)
 
Never seen one of mine do it, but I've heard of it happening occasionally. It's the sweetest thing.
 
Yeah my little one did once.

do you guys leave the skins in the tank after your snakes have shed??? I always take mine out staright away...
 
What else can I do for this RI?

First of all, before I get pseudo-flamed, there is no possibility of vet. As well I'm not even sure it's an RI. It is ONLY sneezing, that I can tell, I haven't seen any mouthbreathing... The sneezing is frequent, every 20 mins or so...No behaviour problems though. He's a 3.5 year male normal.I only got him like a week ago...
Yes, he has a temp gradient and hides...
He's never had aspen, that could be it...
I had another thread for this last week I think...

Mine usually shed in the middle of the night. Since their tanks aren't equiped with shedding alarms, they have to wait until I wake up for me to remove them.
 
ahhh yeah that would make sence, i admit i'm usually up until early hours of the morning doing coursework for school, so i tend to notice straight away when Salsa is shedding. I tend to hear him almost thrashing about in his tank too... is this normal?

I reckon so one of mine seemed to be just starting to look like shedding, no blue or anything, came in next day, viv was trashed an there was a full shed amongst the wreckage!
 
Mine does it almost every time he sheds, i wait untill he's finished then clean up after (what looks like) his tantrum lol
