    Worried about woma

    A while back I posted something about my woma being underweight. Now he is in deep shed and won't do anything. I know that many snakes become inactive when in deep shed but he also refuses to shed. He doesn't move much and doesn't eat. I gave him a long bath the other day but he hasn't shed any. What should I do? I'm worried about him.

    My corn snake does the same. She hasn't moved out of her burrow for days because she's deep in shed. Its alright, I wouldn't want to move either if I was blind.

    My adult male BRB can take weeks to go through a shed cycle, and he really does look miserable from when his eyes turn gray to when he finishes. I just keep his humidity up (ok, higher even than normal), and don't handle him any more than necessary until he's done.
