    Everything shed except his eyes. Please tell me what to do. Do I follow the "Bad shed" post? Any help is appreciated. Thank you

    You can keep the humidity up for a little bit longer and the eye caps should fall off by themselves or you can wait until the next shed.

    Some people suggest trying to take off the caps with a wet papertowel, but there's a greater chance of you injuring their eyes so i'd just leave it be.

    If your not comfortable peeling the caps off then put the snake in a damp pillow case inside his tub. Once the humidity rises, he should be able to rub them off on the inside of the pillow case. Actually works very well, I have done it in the past

    Is the eye cap full on white mean its still on. She sheds great and now after a week I notice that the right eye towards the back has a white thing sticking out from under her scales in between the eye is that bad?

    We need a pic. It could be the membrane of the eye and someone tells you rub it off and you have damaged the snake... pics help greatly.
