    Re: Stuck Eye Cap Help Please

I figured no biggie he will shed it off with his next shed as long as I keep his humidity right. Well I've been working so hard I forgot to jack it up right before he shed. He shed pretty well this time except for a patch on the top of his head and his eye again. I'm now worried about it and don't want him to go blind. However I can't help him get it off. He is super head shy and won't let my hand get anywhere near his head. Let alone touch it. He's been like this since I got him. Will he be okay or should I take him to the vet? I moved him and his humidity should be better now. If I wait one more shed will it damage his eye? I don't have much money but I'll put my bank account in the negative to keep my buddy healthy.
    If it was me, I would just wait until the next shed again. I've had a couple who had stuck eye caps, didn't get them off the first shed, but they did come off the second one.

    See what happens on the next shed.
    It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.
    It is okay to feed live food to snakes.
