    Re: why are her eyes like this if she has already shed
    It does look like she is getting ready to shed again, but it looks like she still has skin on her from the last shed just behind her head. Keep her humidity up and spray her down with some water periodically to help loosen that skin up. Maybe even put her in a rubbermaid with a damp towel for a couple hours to help get rid of the already loose skin.

    You might want to get your snake checked by a vet ... shedding that frequently is often a sign of illness.

    Could you elaborate a little bit on ur experience level? Like how long you've owned the snake, and husbandry stats. Any background info on the bp?

    Need more information again :D
    What is the setup like? Are you housing them in a glass tank or platic enclosure? What are your heat sources, and how are you monitoring/controling them? What is the humidity level like in the enclosure? Are they being housed together in the same enclosure? How many hides do you have and do they encapsulate the animal completely? What kind of substrate do you use? When you took her to the vet, did he/she give her the once over and tell you that everything was ok or was a fecal/blood test done? How long is she and how much does she weigh? And finally does she have any injuries like small cuts or bites?
