    Question about shedding
    I’ve had my girl a month now and she is going through her first shed. I was wondering if helping her by pulling some of the shed off is okay or “bad” or what. Thanks

    Let them work it off to begin with. When done see if there is any stuck skin especially around the face and tail. Boost your humidity to 70%.

    I'd get a rough textured towel / cloth and soak it in warm water ... then ( maybe leaning over the sink or bath ) wrap the snake in the towel and allow it to continually slide through the towel .. when it's head pops out simply cover it with a part of the towel and continue for a while ..

    Generally any loose skin will come off onto the towel ..

    Let us know how things go !
