    well i would be to if some one picked me up while i was pretty much blind. i would leave him alone while he's in blue and till he sheds, they can be very stressed cause they can't see so well and might give you a defensive strike. but thats just what i would do.

    and if you want a good shed i would keep the humidity up to 80% and do everything ya could to make it stay up there, either misting alot, bigger waterbowl, humidifier, whatever.

    he is cranky because he is in shed.

    I typically do not handle my snakes while they are in shed.

    they are very defensive and may strike.

    since they are pretty much blind while in shed handling can cause a lot of unnecessary stress.

    Just to mention, if you think something is wrong with your snake, picking it up to cuddle it will not make the snake feel better. If something IS wrong you'll just stress it out.
    He's probaly just getting ready to shed like everyone else has already said. Good eye for spotting a potential issue early!
