    Shedding process
    Hello, today my Bp starts to Shedding. I know that a good shed is a complete shed. Observing my snake I have seen that she has done an un completely and split shed. Is there something wrong?

    I think i understand what you are saying and it dosent sound like something to worry about, lots of the time sheds are incomplete, maybe if it has not fully shed give it a bath (not to deep, lukewarm water) as that can help, there are many ways to help the shedding process.

    What's the humidity level in her enclosure? Bad sheds are usually (but not always) a sign that the humidity is too low.

    If you need help fixing her bad shed, there's an excellent thread at the top of this forum: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...hed-No-problem

    Humidity needs to be higher more like 60-70. If that doesn't work you can try soaking him in some warm water to help him get the skin off.
