shedding Q

my ball looks like he is about to shed, his eyes are starting to get a little cloudy. last time he shed it didnt come off in one peice, i had to give him warm baths to help the skin come off. ive been misting the cage with warm water to make it more humid but what are some other ways to get the humidity up while they are shedding ?

Just give him a humid hide on the warm side of the tank (you may have to put him in so he knows it's there). If you have a screen top, then cover with damp towels. Also consider switching to a humidity loving substrate like bed-a-beast. With any of these methods (or use them all) you shouldn't have to mist.

Ugh, bed a beast holds humidity like heck! I'm trying to get my humidity levels down because of th stuff.

LOL. I only use it for my kings (who don't need that type of humidity) right now. I'm guessing perhaps it wasn't dry enough before putting it in the cage?

Yeah, I'm drying it out by keeping my heat pads on high. I'm thinking aobut the bakeing hte stuff also.

Yeah, I might try that next time as well. Seems quicker - especially when it's raining outside and you can't sit it out to dry. I'm going to pick up some cheap cookie sheets just for the occasion.

LOL! Looks like this is turning into a back and forth forum! Oh, and i've added one snake to the list of spieces I want to get:
Ball Python
Kenyan Sand Boa
Rough Scaled Sand Boa
Mid Bajan Rosy Boa
Blue Tongued Skink

Yeah, I should be working...but this is more fun!

We'll have a similiar collection if you get all those on your list. Great minds think alike. :)

LOL yeah! I'm going ot have to try and slowly introduce my mom into the idea of having three snakes. She says ones enough.

if i get another snake i would prolly get a corn or another ball. but not yet
