    Welcome to the site!

    First off, stop bathing your snake, you are actually removing the oils necessary for the shedding process, and stressing out your snake. There are only a few reasons to bathe a snake, and those are mites/certain injuries where a betadine soak are necessary, and severe dehydration. Any other time the bad outweighs the good of bathing a snake.

    1. How are you housing your BP?

    2. What are you using to heat the cage?

    3. What are you using to measure temperatures/humidity?

    4. What are your current temps/humidity?

    Also are you sure that the snake is actually shedding? ghost BP's look like they are in shed all the time.
