    One good , one bad, one surprise

    Two of my snakes went into shed at the same time, humidity was the same in each tub(68%), one shed beautiful the other.. crappy.Oh and the surprise was the third that shed in which he fed three days ago and I obviously missed him going blue. On the bad shed I soak him and used a cloth but he still has a bunch of shed, he seemed to be getting real stressed so I put him back in his tub. I bumped up the humidity some more. Should I leave him alone now or soak him again later? sorry about the long post. Thanks

    If he was acting REALLY stressed out from you trying to help skin off, You can leave him for a few days or more with bumped up humidity. If you want to bring him out again and try to help some of it off with a warm wet cloth or other method, go ahead, if he acts up again just put him back.

    Just what I'd do.

    I'd keep the humidity high and let him try and do it on his own. Stress will only cause possible food refusals. He can do it.
