    My snake is going to shed

    I've had her for a while so I can tell when she's going to shed... and she's going to shed in the next week. Problem is, I won't be here (going home for thanksgiving break). I don't want to take her with me because I'll be going back from moms to dads that it'll probably stress her out and she doesn't stay warm enough in the car. I want to make sure she has a good shed, but what can i do? Aside from putting an extra water bowl in there to hopefully help increase humidity, is there anything else? I have three bowls in there now.. in a 20gal long tank. one's under the lamp, one's in the middle, and one's in the "cold" end. Any tips to help her when i'm not here would be greatly appreciated.

    Make sure the temps are right on, keep the humidity up till the minute you walk out, Keep water bowl full and don't be gone to long. LOL

    Hope this helps

    still cloudy.. so i MIGHT get lucky and she might wait until early next week.. usually she sheds like within a week of being all cloudy tho.. just want to be careful and make sure she doesn't have an icky shed when i'm gone.. her last one wasn't a good shed (wasn't BAd, but she still had a bit left) so i want to be extra careful
