snake shed, should i feed it?
hey, sorry to bother you all again.
basically my baby corn snake is due a feed today, thing is he has been looking like he is going to shed for a few days now. should i disturb him to feed him? feeding involves picking him up, putting him in a small plastic RUB, then when he has eaten i put the RUB in the viv so he can crawl out. thank you all!

Let it shed before feeding in case of bulging out on food when the old scales try to seperate nd move off.

I handle all my snakes when in shed and its no problem. Fed a corn in shed today, so it is possible.
I feed them in shed if they are hungry and will take it - some will, some won't. I also rub to feed them. Just don't overstuff them.
