    bit of wisdom needed please guys

    My royal python went dark and grey eyed so I thought he was going to shed coz he was also of his food. Now he's near enough gone back to his normal colour but he hasn't shed? And hes 4days past his feed day he has a sniff at it but doesn't take it and makes a puffy noise sometimes, ive upt the humidty but kinda out of ideas so thought id ask the gurus. Thanks

    Mine can take a few days between when their eyes clear up and they shed. Keep his humidity up and wait. Chances are he'll eat after he sheds.

    Four days is nothing - my male went off food for six months before starting to eat again a few weeks ago. I have another 2 males that stopped eating in early January and haven't started back up yet.

    Fairly often they will will go into blue, look normal then go back again and shed. Humidity rising is the maim reason I think..no worries..

    He should be fine. The eyes clear back up and they seem normal again. However if you look close you should notice he is still a bit darker than normal. That being the case just keep an eye on the humidity and he should shed in a day or two.
