my ball python just finished shedding and is acting weird????

My female bp just finished shedding maybe 30 minutes ago and is acting weird. Her shed went fine she still has an eyecap but I figured i'd wait a day or 2 before I assist hersince she's bing weird. She spent most her shed in her hide. When she got her skin about 3 inches from the tail she finished outside her hide. She pooped after and all that. Now she won't settle down. She's moving all around her cage (more then normal even when she isn't just done with shed). She keeps raising her head all the way up to the top of her cage. She seems a little aggitated. Long story short she just won't settle down she's more active then I've ever seen her. What's going on?

Did you skip her last meal since she was in shed? She could be hungry and looking for food.

Well her next feeding isn't even due for another day or 2. So yea the hungry thing makes sense. Also I'm noticing that it looks like there's a couple very small parts of her had (like arund her nose) that looks like it didn't shed. Should I give her a little time to try and handle it herself before I try?

I honestly wouldn't worry about any of the stuck shed, unless its covering her nostrils. Soaking a snake isn't good for their skin and is pretty stressful on them. The shed will come off the next time she sheds.

Maybe try feeding her tomorrow. And double check your humidity level to make sure its four about where it needs to be
