    Is this normal?

    My Salmon male BCI looked like he has been ready to shed for several days now...even withheld his feeding this week cause he has been cloudy eyed and dark for 4 days now...but this morning I wake up and and his eyes are clear as can be...he is still very dark but there is no shed in his tank...is the eyes clearing up normal? should I offer him food now or just wait till after he sheds? Thanks guys!

    The eyes clear up prior to the shed. Expect it within 3 to 4 days. I would wait until after the shed for the food.

    The eyes clearing up is perfectly normal right before they shed... she should have her new skin in the next day or so.... I offer food even when my snakes are in shed. If they eat great. If they don't they can wait until next week until I offer again....

    Ok awesome...I just wanted to make sure...my female has already shed once for me but I didn't notice the eyes clearing up just prior...this little guy hasn't shed yet since I've had him so I just wanted to be sure...but I figured that was the case since he was still very dark...but thanks for the replies!
