    icandi it wasnt just because.and for whoever else reads this its not just because or just for whatever.like i said right above my bp had some issues going on when i first got her and needed it and the vet said it would help her.she layed a big ol stinky after that shed as well. her husbandry is spot on and she is in her next shed.wel see how that turns out and if she leaves another present.

    im not condoning anyone to go bathe their bps to post a pic,if you have them share them.that is all.

    I don't see anything wrong with it. Of course you shouldn't bathe them excessively but whenever I clean the tank mine gets a soak. Sometimes he likes it and just stays there and takes a drink and other times he wont have it and will start exploring. So I just wipe him off and let him slither around while I clean. Also I get what people say when they slither around in their feces. But even despite that it is only when I clean the tank.
    As long as it isn't excessive I don't think it is that serious of an issue.

    Nah, she will be fine! Some of mine go 2-3 months without going. Crazy stuff. There are others that can help you pinpoint signs that you should be worried, but 3 weeks is okay.

    Shedding can be an all day or night process. Make sure the humidity in the tank is up and let him be.
