hear she's not mouth-breathing now & seems to have more energy- it helps to be getting oxygen, ya think?

See her eyes I’m sure she is ready to shed at this point no longer blue.

Re: Anyone know if this would be ok or not
I'm not an expert, but that looks like she isn't out of blue yet. Looks more to me like she is on her way to the clear stage before the shed.
I think I read on some older threads a while back that snakes may have a longer or more drawn out shed when on medications and that it isn't harmful if it takes longer to happen as long as the shed comes off correctly when it happens.

She's still "in blue"...and snakes that are ill and/or on medications can also be expected to take longer or even have a messed up shed. It's not "the end
the world"...messy sheds happen, they are not an "illness"...only a symptom of what's going on with a snake's body.

Re: Anyone know if this would be ok or not
I offered her a jumbo rat today knowing that she prolly wouldn’t eat it.. but she hasn’t ate since I got her and who knows the last time the last owners fed her so I tired anyway. It took a little coaxing. But she took it killed it and let it go .. I was like damn figured. So i left it in their with her turned off her light and left for about 30 mind came back and the rat was gone so all animals fed for me this week hopefully. No more problems makes me feel much better . I didn’t think she would feed cause of the mess and shedding but I’d rather offer and it be a waste of money then assume and not try and she be hungry
