Intro and an interesting photo

[wawatoosie]

Hi Everyone!

I'm Heather and I have a two-year-old corn snake. I mainly joined this forum becuse I am eager to hear your thoughts on this photo.

My snake Indiana, was halfway through shedding when she turned around and crawled BACK into her shed, creating a circle. WHY?!!

In the photo, her tail is at the bottom and her head is at the top, under the log.

Hey Heather! :wavey:

I have no idea why the snake did this. Maybe she liked her old skin better??

I have no idea, but that picture is pretty much hilarious. :roflmao: Welcome to the forum!

Thank you! I'm calling this photo Shedder's Remorse.

Your snake seems to be a very beautiful Miami Phase! Congrats on having such a pretty snake, and welcome to the forum.

Oh and the name "Shedder's Remorse" fits perfectly!

Someone on here had a picture once of a snake shed where the tail was in the mouth or something like that...if only I could find it! Anyway welcome to the forums!

Maybe that's what Dier did to create her amasing Oroboros shed.

Now I'm going to have to find where I stored that shed and check it for an exit hole.

*edit* having checked the shed... no exit hole, but there is a section halfway down that is stretched waaaay bigger than the rest of the shed, so I bet she turned around there.

Weird creatures. You're saving this shed, right?

 

[jesserca]

Aha! There it is!^^^

Lol this is a great start to being on the forum! Welcome and enjoy!

Shiari, that is an amazing shed, lol! Too bad but when Indiana was done, her shed didn't look like yours. That, I probably would have kept. It's awesome to know that even after two years, this snake is still amazing and entertaining my family and I!

Thinking about sheds like these makes my head hurt!!

What a great photo! How cool that you were able to catch her in the moment! And I must say, beautiful, beautiful Miami. One of my favorite morphs! :}

Also, welcome to the forum!

Thank you Jlindp. It was a treat to catch her in the act though slightly painful to watch though as she struggled to break out. She's a beautiful snake if I do say so myself. )
