Dippy looking corn trying to get his skin off

Cool pictures!! I wish I could catch mine shedding.

What kind of bedding are using? Are they in the same tank?
 
Haha, nice pics, he looks determined to get that skin off! Usually my corns ONLY shed on me! They use my jeans as a rough surface.
 
Cool shedding pics :)

Looks like beech chippings to me, it's the most usual substrate this side of the pond.

I don't think I've ever seen beech chippings in a corn viv over here. I looked for beech chippings myself once and couldn't find it anywhere. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. :grin01:
 
That's weird, we're in the same county, but I just see big bags of chippings when I'd like to get aspen! I tried the chippings but any moisture from urates or water spillage just goes to the bottom and goes funky.
 
Yes I was using chippings at the time. The pet shop no longer does them, so now my snake's on corn cob stuff. They were together for breeding. The male's gone now. He didn't do anything anyway. He just went and sat under a piece of bark and went to sleep. He was a lovely gentle and friendly snake, and without wanting to anthropomorphise I actually think the two corns liked each other. Cohabbing with another corn is the least of his worries- he's normally kept in a tank, by his owner with a rat snake. He mates with this rat snake and am assuming that is why he was not turned on by my corn. Wrong smell I suppose.
