My First Shed!

[Crawly's Mom]

So I woke up this morning and checked on everyone and noticed that there was a skin shed in Parker's tank. I checked on her in her hide and realized it isn't totally off. She got down about 2/3 of her body, but it looks like the skin might have torn. Should I give her a warm water bath now or wait a little longer to see if she gets it the rest of the way off? It isn't pieces... it was a large piece, but it looks like maybe it got snagged and tore off or something, got through her head okay and almost the whole length of her body.

I would give the snake a chance to get the rest off before I would soak it. If it doesn't come off then you could try soaking or just having a warm wet wash cloth and let the snake run through the cloth.
