No , it isn't a seperate enclosure , nor is it small - it is the cool end of a 40BR tank , you can't really see his water dish , it's in the middle of the tank .

Rusty_Reptiles , I don't have him on pine , it's aspen . I would be interested in more info on the cypress mulch though , where can I get it ?

How long does it take for them to complete their shed and want to eat? Wow that looks awesome!!!

I think it varies for each snake , for Morpheus it was done 4 days after his eyes blued over . He was hungry as soon as he finished shedding !

uh o her eyes have been blurred since i got her and it has been two weeks is this right???? Oh god i got to take the snake to the vets!!!!!???

Calm down . Her eyes are completely blue ? This stage can last a bit . She won't shed , until her eyes have cleared again . How is the humidity in her tank ?

ok i calm down,,, her humidity is now 62% and temp. low 80.

Ok , that might be why it is taking her so long . When in shed , the humidity needs to be higher , around 80% . The temp should be between 85-95 during the day , always . What kind of enclosure do you have her in , what sort of lid ?
It sounds like you just need to bring the humidity up . If you do a search for humidity , you'll find many good ideas to help bring it up . :)

ok usually the humidity wants to be at 90% so i open the glass lid alittle thinking 90% was dangerous. i bought her a moon shaped aquirium at petco. I have a humidifier too but turned it off because it goes beyond 90%. I think this would work if i bought a heating lamp? Maybe this would balance out the humidity when i have the humidifier on? And one little piece in the trianglar part of the lid is plastic.

Yep , 90% is getting up there . A heat lamp will burn off some of the humidity , if you want to try that , see if you can balance it . Don't worry - while her eyes are still blue , she won't shed . That stage lasted about 2 weeks or so for my boy . Once her eyes clear , she'll shed in a few days .

ok thank-you so i will wait a bit all she is doing is under hide away in a coiled in a ball, and one day took a bath lol i was amazed. Very unique pets but her and i been stressin trying to figure out this cage thing. so heating pad isn't enough it won't let me adjust it errrrr. <----thinks i bought wrong kind lol
