Hi Everyone,
I was given this baby puff adder about three weeks ago, but know nothing of its history. It went into the blue soon after I got it, but had a very bad shed. Only the skin on the top of the head and the bottom jaw came loose.
I have tried soaking the snake for an hour every evening since, but the skin won't come off. I have even tried soaking it overnight. It's as if the snake had been badly dehydrated at some stage, and now the skin is stuck.
I have had many baby puff adders in my life and have even bred them before, but I have never seen a problem like this.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated:)
