Super stuck shed

I have a hatchling born 6/29 that has a very stuck shed. It's not flaky pieces like stuck sheds I've seen before, this poor guy can't get this skin off. I gave him a soak and tried gently rubbing/massaging the shed but nothing came off. The tub he's in is humid, I've been misting it a bit since he started going into shed. Suggestions? Maybe a few more baths or a moss filled hide?

How long did you soak and what temp was the water?

The water temp was about 85 degrees, I only let him soak for a minute or so, I didn't want to stress him out. Should I let him soak longer?

I've never soaked a snake so young to be fair , he's about 3 weeks old ?

I'd be tempted to go the moss hide route and spray well a few times each day and it should come off just fine .
Some even put the their snakes in a wet, loosely tied-up cotton pillowcase for a couple of hours - leave in the rub / viv , of course .

I wouldn't soak again, personally. I would go the damp moss in the hides route and hopefully it'll work itself off.

Are the eye caps intact? Or were the eye caps shed?

It *looks* like the eyecaps were shed, the eyes look very clear.
