If she has patches of old shed as of tomorrow, you can try a warm water soak with a towel.

Also, not sure if it's the design of the water bowl, but you need to change her water. It should be refreshed whenever it's dirtied or cluttered. Looks like a bunch of bark might be in it.

Our beloved snakeys usually prove to be more expensive than most new owners originally bargain for, but it's so worth it for their well-being. Spending the necessary money upfront is worth it, and will ultimately save you in vet bills later if your husbandry is right!

1. The paper towels were only in the hides and I had foil covering the top. I was advised to try regular towels instead. 2. I change the water daily and due to how heavy the bowl is, the substrate sticks to my hands and the bowl spills a lot and it's difficult to keep it full and clean when I change it. 3. I may unfortunately need to sell her because I don't MAKE the right money to even save for things like vets. ;-;
