just noticed yesterday that my corns belly has gone grey and white instead of the black and white chess board he usually has.

I'm guessing he's getting ready for his shed.

Should he go blue before u notice the change in his colour or the other way around???
 
not all the time. sometimes you could miss the blue phase completely. i know on my snow it is hard to tell
 
sounds cute looking, with my corn I've noticed that first he gets quite dull looking as the skin seperates itself then he becomes a bit more bright as the process goes on then after his shed he's almost glowing, I love it. I have an amel and I've never seen his eyes go "blue" yet.
 
he dose look cute

hes has been very quite and i know this is normal but could someone give me soem sort of time scale at what he will do ruffly.how long after he goes blue to when he sheds.i havnt handled him since he has gone blue.is it ok to handle when blue or shedding?

I know what to do if he ahs a bad shed but fingers crossed he wont.Temp is at 85 and have increased his humidity to 65%.Any info or F.A.Q would be good
 
time frames vary for each snake but it could take up to a week, I sometimes gandle mine when in shed but it is better not to.
 
cool.i had him out yesterday and he seamed as calm as ever.are they blind when they go blue?
 
I don't think they are completely blind when they are in blue, but they definitely don't have the sharpest vision. That is why most don't like to be bothered because they don't feel secure. That is also why they tend to stay in their hide for a while.
