    Missing shed??

    I am so confused right now my bp looked like she was going into shed she had the cloudy eyes the pale skin and was acting super sleepy like she was saving energy for a shed so i made her a shed box left her in it for a while and then i just left her there and let her leave if she wanted to and she didn't she loved it so today when i went to check on her
    SHE LOOKED FINE like 0 sign of shed she seemed more awake no cloudy eyes perfect skin everything and i am SO confused???

    Most ball pythons clear up their skin and eyes RIGHT before they shed, mine go completly clear before they begin to shed

    That’s normal, just after snakes go into blue they go into a clear phase where it’s hard to tell that they are in shed. He should shed very soon now, it means he’s just about to shed

    As mentioned by others there is a period between the snake looking normal again and the skin coming off .. as much as a week can pass then if it's a Royal/Ball python you normally find it in one of the hides in a dirty messy lump.

    Your snake hasn't shed yet. It usually takes 1-3 days after the eyes and skin clear before the snake sheds. Let her be in her enclosure and she'll shed soon
