    It sounds like your humidity may be to low. What are you using to measure your humidity? What kind of setup is your snake kept in?

    As ballpythonluvr said, your humidity possibly may be too low! If you're using a digital hygrometer then try to aim for 70-80% humidity during the shedding process, do not bathe your BP while she is going through this process as it may remove the essential oils your BP needs to shed properly.
