    in shed or not?

    is my ball python going to shed any time soon? her eyes were dull for a week and her belly was pink too..I made sure that the humidity in the tub doesn't drop below 70% and I even soaked her in the water for about 15 min..she also appeared super stressed. but again, I just checked on her and her eyes seemed to be perfectly fine, turning black again like how it used to although she did not shed yet..her belly is not as pink and she seems calm.

    Yes. That is the shed process. Typically takes 5 to 8 days. Starts with a pink belly, then the eyes cloud over, once they clear back up there is another day or two, maybe three and she will shed. Just keep the humidity up and she should be fine.
