Manasha is looking mighty dehydrated (pix)

[Manasha-Bogo]

she's moving around in there and sticking her head under her body... should I do the wet paper towel thing now or wait till later tonight..?

[Manasha-Bogo]

What LGray said....

Do what you can to boost your humidity too. It should be about 70% - especially right now while she's recouperating.

roger that!

Now until morning would be fine. You'll see a lot of condensation...that's normal so don't freak out. It's only temporary for overnight...

[Manasha-Bogo]

Woot! doing it right now.... I *much* rather fix a stuck shed than a dying snake... lol...

[Manasha-Bogo]

The skin has already started coming off around her head (before I did anything). This is awesome, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

[Skittles1101]

Please let me know if it works for you. I started doing that for my bad sheds this winter, it was a terrible winter for humidity here but it worked every time!

I'm actually filing this tip away for future reference myself. I like this idea much better than the pillow case thing.... Thanks Leah!!

[Manasha-Bogo]

humidity 90%
Ambient 79F
Heat Pad 90F

She already looks better. No wrinkles anymore... skin hanging around her head but she's not doing anything to get it off. Just hiding out..

[Evenstar]

Just give her time. She should be much better by morning.

See hon, I told you. That silly vet telling you to soak her in the beginning stages of a shed was going to wreck her shed.

Give her a little time and some peace and quiet and she should come out of most of it. If not, you can gently help her peel it off.

I am waiting and rooting for you both that she gets better. She is such a pretty snake.
