Re: Baby boa eating own skin??
She will go blue... then "clear" up for a couple of days - are you sure she's just not in the clear stage?

I've never seen a snake eat their sheds, though a few of mine have gotten stuck crawling through them backwards after they dried out (what were they thinking? )
I would bet your snake hasn't shed yet, but has gone to 'clear' (just prior to shedding) so it LOOKS like she has....???
