    Yep, looks like your bp is shedding. Bump up the humidity to about 70 and you should have a perfect shed. Also, a good way to tell if you bp is going to shed, is to look for the pink/rose belly.

    Here's a good thread regarding this topic: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showthread.php?t=28794

    Also expect it to be either cranky or lethargic until he does, and be prepared that he will clear up BEFORE he sheds. Don't panic if his eyes are clear but you dont' see the shed skin.

    Re: Going blue?

    Can the humidity be too high during this time? I'm spraying the tank down often and the humidity is in the high 80's

    That's alright as long as it falls down a bit. It should be around 70s-80s.

    I have also found that my BP likes to hide for a about a 1-1.5 weeks before she gets to that place where her eyes turn. Otherwise she is out often to say hello.
