    My ball python has stuck shed but she just ate
    My ball python has some stuck shed, which is my fault for not misting the enclosure enough before going to sleep, but my main problem is should I leave her alone and just spray her cage down good or take her out and help her out with some warm water. She just ate yesterday so what should I do?

    Ramp up the humidity and leave her be. A touch of stuck shed is not the end of the world.

    I like to put an extra bowl of water in the tub when shed time comes. It's always worked for me.

    In the future you should look into creating a humid hide. That's what I do, it works like a charm, every time.

    Since she just ate, I'd leave her alone for the first 48 hours or so. After that, here is my recommendation: https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...hed-No-problem.

    It sounds like you already know what caused the issue. Even when conditions are optimal, though, you will run into the occasional stubborn shed. The above link is a good tool to have in your belt when you need it. Good luck!
