The snake thing was an ordeal, trying to find someone to rehab it. Not happy about that.
It looks like the daily soaks did the trick though! He shed overnight and all the bad patches went along with it, some areas were several layers thick. He has some scaring, but nothing that will cause trouble. He rode home in my arms from the other house like he had always been around people, and after taking a few photos of that awesomely colored patterned, I put him right back where I found him. I hope to sew him again someday! And I hope he makes lots of babies!
