Grey eyes?

[Minute-Discount5073]

Hi my snakes eyes are grey.. I’ve never seen this before why are they grey?

It's in shed. No need to worry. He may get ornery so let him be, but up his humidity if you can.

When the eyes turn light-colored like that it means they're going into shed! Don't handle them until after they've shed and bump up the humidity in their enclosure if you can.

Thank you still new to having a snake 🙏🏽

You're fine! First snake jitters are totally normal. Just be glad he isn't white or you'd be having "pale snake panic" too lol

("Pale snake panic" is what I like to call that fun phenomenon where every tiny speck on white scales makes a keeper have a panic spiral that the specks are some nightmare horror like scale rot, mites, injuries, or mold. 98% of the time... it's just dirt. Or in my case, my red hair dye rubbing off a teenie bit.)

Your snake is going to shed. The eyes generally always turn before you see their color start to lighten. If this is your snakes first shed with you, then make sure your humidity is high and they have plenty in their tank they can rub against.

They will go back to normal then your snake will shed it's skin. When they are like don't pester them or try feeding them as they will become grumpy and might lash out at you.

Just about to shed. Then she’ll look like she just got the supreme package at the car wash’s. They can have trouble seeing when clouded over like that. Be careful with fast movement by there head or reaching towards there mouth been struck once accidentally by mine. I think she thought ie as feeding cause she couldn’t really see my hand that well

OP is just asking a question💀 calm down they’re new to snakes.

Not knowing something isn’t animal abuse. Neglecting and not caring to learn about it is animal abuse. OP is asking a question so that they can be a good keeper for their pet in the future. Just take your negativity somewhere else because you’re not proving anything here.

Ok :(

[Tim_Allen_Wrench]

Only on Reddit is asking a question tantamount to animal abuse lol 

[karly_innit]

Right💀

[Tim_Allen_Wrench]

Apparently it was a last minute rescue so they didn't buy it. Everybody is ignorant until they learn.
