Ok, so I gave her another soak. I'm not sure how much it helped, I didn't see anything come off but it may have come off in teeny pieces I suppose. I let her soak a half hour then slither through some damp washcloths for a while. She is still awful wrinkly (see pic).

I did notice after soaking - not before - she now has a fluid pouch under her skin. Doesn't seem to bother her. I can poke it amd swish the fluid around. Her last third of her body also seems softer amd swollen/squishy down to her vent. but that could be sausage butt too. I know soaking can make them poop. You can see the fluid pocket in the pic that is of her back on the left side- water getting between layers of shed? Under skin? Not sure there.

She seems more curious and less panicked this time. Stronger, too, she's able to hold her body horizontally. I'll take it. I will leave her a few days before feeding since I'm sure it was pretty stressful for her still. Regardless she will be kept in decent humidity at least until she sheds once with me.
