    Shedding question

    My baby ball python (about 1 1/2 months old) began shedding Monday, May 25. At least this is when I noticed her shedding. She was very dull and looked terrible. After several days her skin began coming off in pieces. I know they are not supposed to shed in pieces but I am having a terrible time with the humidity.......hoping to have that solved next week as I am building a cage.

    90% of her body has shed but she has yet to shed her head and eyes. When should I begin to get concerned about this?

    Re: Shedding question

    Hi,

    I would go ahead and have a read through the sticky.

    If you post up a thread with the pics of your enclosure there might be a few tips people could recommend to help you with the humidity too.
