Hey guys! I'm Mishay.
I have had my baby girl Hermosa for 8 months now! Ever since I got her she has had shedding problems, even the pet store (just reptiles) said that she had troubles.. actually all of her brothers and sisters did. Any ways 1st shed I had to help her shed everything, second shed she shed in pieces so I had to help her shed everything else, 3rd shed was the same as the second one, 4th shed she shed everything but her head, 5th shed she shed everything but her eye caps. So I can see her progress. But this is really serious.. I have tried everything to get her eye caps off even watching hours of youtube videos of ball python eye cap care and such... I have done everything I can except the tweezers (Which I will never do). I figured that since she has progressed a lot with her sheds I should just leave her alone and see if they come off for the next shed. Well now she is in full shed mode!
I have put a nice wet hand towel on top of her cage and the humidity is 60 percent, I make sure her water dish is full of fresh water everyday and I handle her for 5 minutes a day to make sure she is doing okay. I love my girl very much and I just finished giving her a 10 minute bath, I put bio oil on her eyes daily (mineral oil). So I was wondering if there is anything else I need to do? I am really hoping she gets off her eye caps because I don't want her to go blind, I would feel so guilty and would never forgive myself if that happened. Please let me know if I can do anything else. Thank you for reading.
