Don’t we all?

Go ahead and gloat while you can, Snake, your brand new skin ain’t going to look so good when The Fat Broad gets done beating you with a club.

she can’t – but she skins others

MOLT! :D

Not a good idea to antagonize her, considering her history of snake whacking.

Re-molt control…

Now we know why she whacks him every chance she gets!

After molting, is it molten?

Do we really want to see Jane molt?

Molting enables snakes to grow more/faster.

She doesn’t need to grow/expand any more (any faster).

Were the first two panels filmed in slow moltion? And what would happen if the snake couldn’t remember the command words to shout, “Molt! Molt! Molt!”

Fourth panel “SMACK”

My chickens molt every fall, it’s never as clean and quickly as that. What a mess—feathers everywhere for weeks!

ecdysis

He picked a great spot. And, if FB tags him with her club, that’s what he’ll be – a great spot.

Where’s her club?

Funny timing on today’s strip. My snake just shed its skin yesterday. It took her a while though and she was still struggling so I help her along. She looks so pretty once she is nice and clean but then it’s feeding time…

i thought snake was in hibernation with bear ?

Don’t upset her. She has a club and can use it.

Fat Broad is lamenting her club is back in the cave.

Looks a little painful!!!! Before shedding, a snake may exhibit signs of stress or discomfort, such as reduced appetite or changes in behavior. However, the shedding itself is not painful. After shedding, snakes often feel relief and may appear more vibrant and healthy.

Nice flex by the snake…sadly those will probably be his last words once she reaches for her club.

The snake is asking for it….too close to getting whammed….

She did when she was younger and had problems with acne

Considering how close your enemy is, you’d better be leaving molto accelerando.

Someone’s asking to get whacked.

We can exfoliate just fine. It’s called dandruff

Better watch who you’re calling a sucka! Fat Broad will stomp on you till you say uncle!

He’d best be careful, she might make him do it again, here and now!

Jane (?) is about to help him “break in” his new skin! (Tho’ I don’t see a club!)

(To the tune of “Fulsom Prison”). I hear a sound a comin, a thistle in the wind, it’s a club a swingin and it’s gonna be there soon….

She uses a rasp file. The pile of scales are used for spacecraft heat entry shields.

Wham wham wham wh……..

I’m surprised she doesn’t have the club next to the rock.

The club is in her left hand, snake.
