Kenyan Sand Boa Shedding Question

[thedarkwolf25]

How long do these guys take to shed? is it any longer than a Ball? Hades is still in shed and I don't want to interfere until I know he needs help, his humidity is at 25-30% which is around the room's humidity, that should be enough considering that they come from an arid environment. Can you guys give me any input?

They usually take the same amount of time as a bp, around 1 to 2 weeks. That sounds like enough humidity, but I know when I was still working at Petsmart we had a little KSB that ended up having a bad shed and we had to use the damp towel trick on him. I'm sure yours is fine though, I would only start to worry if it's been a lot longer than 2 weeks.

mine is in shed too and I use damp towels and place him inside the towels under a hide. He will usually hang out there and after a few days of changing them he makes his way out and his shed is left behind.

Well I will have to add a humid hide for him. He shed but it was a bad one, his lower scales were stuck on. I just put him in about 1.4 inch of lukewarm water for half an hour and it came off fine. Thanks for the info guys!

Woke up this morning and his shed was laying there (complete)
He has had three good sheds so far. Wraping him up in damp towels 3 nights in a row after he dulls has worked so far
