    Shedding question
    I think my boy is about to go into shed. He's not in the blue yet, but his belly looks pink. He's also been spending a lot more time in th cooler areas of his home. Do BPs usually want to do a cool down before shed or what? His warm side ranges from 92-95°

    Your warm side is a little too warm. I would drop it down so it doesn't exceed 90 degrees. 85 to 90 is better than 90 to 95. Also you may want to have a spray bottle and mist him at least once in the morning and once at night until he sheds. If your humidity is able to stay up around 65% to 70% pretty well then it may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt either.
