When they are in the shed process they get wrinkly, it's probably also due to how low the humidity has been so we definitely need to get that up. Also don't soak him when he begins his shed process only do so if he's having a bad shed (shedding in pieces). When you soak then before they actually start shedding it washed off the oils in their skin that they need to shed in one piece and it usually results in bad sheds. To remove a bad shed here's a good thread on it.

To answer your last question he is not growing because you are underfeeding him. A mouse pinky is wayyy to small of a meal for any sized ball python. Start feeding him rat pups and he should start growing significantly more than he is now.

Im feeding him only pinkies because he had the issue with prolapsing. When he ate a mouse fuzzy it caused him to prolapse again so I'm worried if I feed him too big it'll happen again. Also any recommendation for bedding?
