    Stuck eyecaps?
    My BP had his first shed yesterday, It wasn't in one piece despite the humidity being correct, I will be purchasing a better Humidity checker in case that was the problem with an inaccurate reading.
    But i've looked through the bits of skin and I can't notice any that may be the eye caps...(i'm new to this)
    So i'm wondering if anyone could help me out and tell me what to look for regarding stuck eyecaps? are they obvious to see when you look at the snake?
    does anyone have a picture of a snake with stuck eyecaps as a visual aid for me?

    Thanks in advance guys and have a very good 2015!:taz:

    Even if you do recognize that there are in fact stuck eye caps, I strongly recommend you don't do anything to attempt to help "fix the problem" manually. As long as husbandry conditions are right, it will come off the next time the snake sheds. Just forget it - leave it alone. The eye cap won't hurt the eye of the snake, but you might. :)
