Bad shedders?

[AcePythons]

So, I have this one snake who has just had an awful time shedding the last two times. All my other snakes shed perfectly and my husbandry doesn't seem to be an issue. (Temps are stable and I spray extra when I notice they are in shed.)

Is it possible for a snake to just always have a shedding problem?

Are you measuring the humidity? Do you feed before shedding? Is it a spider?

I have issues if they eat a big meal. Some snakes will need 60-70% humidity for a good shed, others can do it with 50-60%. My spider has a little bit of a wobble, so she requires a little extra humidity. My pastel ate once, and shed the next day. It wasn't so good. Lol. He had a full belly, and just not enough energy.

My hygrometer broke (my big girl dumped her water bowl on it), but I haven't changed my husbandry in any way and I was at 55% normally, but like I said, when I notice a shed I spray 4 - 5 times instead of twice a day as normal.

It is an albino, and no it'd been probably about 10-12 days since he'd last eaten.

Like I said, all my others shed great, so I am not sure why he'd have such problems. His first ones here weren't bad at all. Came right off...but these last two have just been awful!

EDIT: This one wasn't AS bad as the last one. I noticed he broke the shed today and soaked him for an hour and 90% of it came off with a hand towel. There is still some on his head. I plan to soak him again tomorrow to get that off but I wanted to give him a break. (He hates being handled as it is, so getting the body shed off was stressful enough.)

Huh. That is strange. Maybe make a humid hide for that one when she is in she? Maybe she's just lazy She's showing you her uniqueness.
