    I think that the shed was incomplete most likely due to humidity. In the photos of her climbing the table leg I can see some wrinkles on her body which is a sign of dehydration. You mentioned in a previous post that you have trouble keeping your humidity above 30-40% - this is too low for a ball python, it should be a minimum of 50-60% humidity. It might help to consult some of the BP care guides on this forum, there are lots of different methods for increasing humidity in the enclosure.
    A bit misleading, I had to spray the cypress mulch every morning to keep the humidity high enough. I then bought Spagmoss which i still give a spritz each morning to aid in keeping it high. Usually Its around 60-70%, but again thats with me spraying every morning. But you may be right she possibly is dehydrated.

    Any other suggestions on how to help her shed completely? all Info is definitely appreciated.
