Snake shed issue long time...

[maskedburito]

Classic issue, problem with shed but... It's been almost two weeks and there is still a piece of shed left. It covers half the head including an eye and about 2 inches down the back. So not much left but it's been forever and won't come off... I've tried moist towels, warm bathes etc. all those tricks on Google. Any other tricks?

More importantly is there a medical consequence for this, is my snake in danger in anyway?

Thanks!

Not in any danger but it can be a vision issue if it goes on too long. I've seen people use those little rubber finger tips you see people use for thumbing through mail to gently rub it off. I typically just use the luke warm water bath for 20-30 mins and a gentle rub with a moist towel.

I don't have much expirience but I have read quite a bit. I'd go ahead and make a humid hide box. He should be able to get it off himself with enough humidity.

First step would be to correct the humidity...I have used the pillow case trick with two rescues.
