    Shed Problems
    My bp has been in its shed process now for over 2 weeks. The head cap has shed completely removing both eye caps however it has not shed the rest of its body. It has been a few days now that it has not she the rest of its body and im getting concerned. I was thinking about adding aspen shavings to help hold moisture in order to increase humidity.

    My snake went through probably his 4th shedding and it came off in pieces. It has been about 4 or 5 weeks and there are still little bits of his skin on. Any recommendations? Is this normal?

    its stuck shed has been on for 4-5 weeks? sounds like a humidity problem.. do you have an idea of what the humidity is in the cage? you can read that link i just posted too and it should help get the stuck shed off
