hello and welcome! as far as the hides are concerned, the only thing i can tell you is that you should have two identical ones... one on the cool side and one on the warm side. and as far as shedding, their eyes usually clear up a couple days before they shed. with that humidity i would imagine he should have a good shed this time around. whenever you have a stuck shed like that, you can soak them for a little while in warm water and it should come right off. good luck!!!
