Hi there
My snakes shed a couple of times a year.
I don't know what sex mine are - they say you can tell by the shape of the tail, but I don't know. - you could take it to a vet, who could probe it, but unless you're going to mate it, I don't think it matters.
I've decided one of mine is a girl, and the other is a boy lol

Mine don't hibernate, but do sometimes decide not toe at for a while.
Snakes can go for a while without eating. But always check the temps etc are right in it's housing.
I hardly ever see mine drink, or move about - they like sleeping!

My snakes do 1 or 2 poos the day, or the day after they feed.

here a pic of pilchard the kids call her snake o poops cause each time they play wif her she poops,she been very active latley,but then iv moved her to a bigger tank.
thanx for your advice,

She's lovely!
Do you know how old she is? How long is she?

she is 3 cm short of 3 ft and shes 1yr old.when i bought her i wanted a corn but not a baby as im affraid the wee ones might of mishandled her,anyway the man i bought her from hand had time for her,and her tank was stinking,she doesnt poop very often o he mustnt have cleaned her in ages the poor thing,but she hangs round my daughters neck like a necklace.
