Hooked for life!!
When I lifted the hide today to re-moist the paper towl and I found a long piece of shed skin..I thought since it was so long that she had shed completely so I took her out to handle her..but then I noticed that her skin was still flakey and she wasn't done shedding yet..I immediately put her back in with the paper towl in her hide and sprayed the tank a bit...Have I done anything harmful by handling her for a few minutes since I didn't know she wasn't done yet?? I hope not :0( :cry:

I handle all 3 of my current snakes when they are blue. It's no big deal. In fact, my corn will actually shed in my hands, if I let her. I usually just let her break the skin, though, then I put her in her enclosure.
