i just purchased a ball python 2 weeks ago he/she has no problem eating and i think it has a shedding problem,
i was wondering if anyone can give me some tips on age and how to figure out the gender

Make sure you provide good humidity I'd say 60% so he could shed in one piece also for gender you would have to pop him and to be on the safe side I'd contact a breeder who knows what he's doing so he can pop it for you

Just be careful you can injure you snake. Google breeders in your area first, maybe there is one who could show you.

It looks to be a normal, if you upload a better pic through photobucket you'll get a definite answer
