    Again feeding smaller preys every 5 to 7 days until the animal gets back into a better shape is what is needed here and of course in the meantime, small living area, minimum handling, I would not even worry about the stuck shed at this point either not until you can get several meals in her.
    Deborah, I mentioned it as a last resort. Obviously, you would not force feed a sickly animal when it's eating on it's own. Only tube feed as that would be the last choice if it's not eating at all.
