    Shedding #2
    So I recently posted about my snake shedding, but it didn't get any replies. I need to know how long it usually takes them. Its been about 2 days now! I found parts of skin in one of the hides and i heard its bad if the skin is not in one piece

    Generally, a good shed is in one piece yes. It's not horrible if they shed in pieces over a couple of days (not dangerous, but not great either).

    This generally means that you need to bump up your humidity when the snake is getting ready to shed. Not enough humidity = bad shed.

    Make sure the head is clear though. No retained eye caps and whatnot.
