Worried about my ball python

[tttaylorrr]

Update on Eliot! I followed some very good advice and was able to get his skin nice and loose and then it came off pretty easily with him crawling through a wet towel. He still has some shed stuck on the head and an inch or so down the back but 90% of it is off and he looks so much better. Thank you all for the amazing advice.

thanks for the update!!! i'm glad you were able to help him!

so a few bits of stuck shed is not a big deal, but you must make sure the following parts are clear: the head/eyes, tail-tip, and any piece of skin that is fully around the body still. however, this lil guys needs some peace and quite. i wouldn't worry about the bit on his head for now. during his next shed you need to be sure your husbandry is correct so this doesn't happen again and any stuck bits will come off with the next shed.
