    Being in pieces is not bad, his technique may just be a little off. A perfect shed is one that comes off completely! :gj:

    Your humidity sounds fine. Some tips that may help you is to provide a water bowl big enough for it to soak in, and when you see the eyes clouding offer, possibly try to mist the enclosure a tad, and mist it.

    Your humidity sounds fine. My girl usually sheds in a few pieces as well, even with the right humidity and such. As long as it gets all of the old skin off there's no worries :)

    Yea it's fine, if you had to start taking pieces off or something like that, then I would worry.

    Yeah, it's completely normal. Mine does too. I think the hides are slightly more humid than the cage, and they like being safe :)
