My Spider's eye looks weird
Ever since Arnold shed she has a weird spot on her right eye. I thought maybe it a piece left behind from her shed but it kind of looks like a scratch. She can still see fine and all but it just bugs me, I dont want her to be unhealthy in ANY way. I can try to post pictures of it tomorrow if she will sit still lol but if anyone has any ideas what it could be and if I should worry or not I'd be glad to hear it!
Edit: I looked at it again and it kinda looks wrinkly over that eye. I can't really think if anything else to describe it?

Ok I'll mist it some more and see if that helps. If it is an eye cap from the previous shed should I remove it or can she handle it?

If it is a stuck eye cap you will probably be fine leaving it be until she sheds again. One stuck eye cap isn't the end of the world, but once you start getting 2 or 3 layers it's not so good. If you do decide to try to remove it I would recommend placing her in a wet pillow case/snake bag for a half an hour to an hour, make sure you knot the bag so she can't get out. That should remove it while she is searching for a way out.

I purchased this snake like this and soon after I put him into a tub with good humidity it fixed itself.
