He's in blue! :) his eyes are blue that will clear up soon and then in a couple days he will shed so just keep the humidity up and he will hopefully be fine under your care :)

Yup, Clyde appears to be going into shed. Just boost your humidity and he should be fine. He's in good hands with you, so I wouldn't worry. :gj:

I've had trouble with the humidity in here simply because it's quite a big viv, I have a deep water bowl ( filled every day) under the ceramic heat bulb and a plastic tub with holes in the lid with about inch water too also have been misting twice a day to try keep it up for him hygrometer says average is 55 peaks at 80 and drops to 45 ( presumably overnight) fingers crossed this is ok for him :)

If you really need help with humidity and covering the screen/extra water bowl/misting isn't helping I put a cheap 10$ humidifier in my room with my snakes and it works pretty good pain to have to refill every day or twice a day but it's working. Already had one bp with a perfect shed and my other just got out of blue so hopefully Tomm she'll have a perfect shed too. Although when I got her she had old stuck shed in a few places so we'll see.

Yeah I thought about something like that, since upping the size of my water bowl and adding the extra tub of water it seems to be steady 60% during the days just drops a little at night, will keep humidity up and see how this one goes if not I think il order myself a little humidifier gadget lol 😁

I have some difficulty with humidity during the winter months too. When one of mine goes into shed I always add a few extra water bowls, tubs of damp sphagnum moss or paper towels, etc... It clutters the enclosure for a few days and isn't very visually appealing, but it gets the humidity up enough that I haven't had any shed issues at all.

If it got to a humidifier resort don't get the super cheaper tiny ones that fit in your hand pretty much that a cup of water I went through 3 and not long ago and each stopped pushing water through after a couple days. And whether that's bc of the filter or whatever reason that's a pain to change the filter every couple days or mess with it. I just found the cheapest big one I could find at Walmart/meijers and it was only 10$. Which technically would be cheaper than using substrate in the long run? Bc even if your sitting 60% still might need to bump it up a bit during shed

Way to go for providing a great and loving home for Clyde :) Sounds like you are a wonderful owner for his forever home.

You can buy moss to increase the humidity and just keep wetting it once it dries out, especially nice to have when they are in shed. I'm not sure which substrate you're using but when we had a screen lid tank I switched to expanding coco-husk and it retained moisture fairly well but I didn't love when it dried out it became a bit dusty. Now I use repti-bark and it seems to keep a nice consistent humidity, looks and smells good, easy to clean out. We recently added a huge water dish for the winter just to keep humidity up. Luckily the winter is almost over and it will be perfect conditions once again since I live in a humid part of the earth.

Hope the shed comes off clean!! Gosh they are so beautiful coming off a fresh shed <3
