Well, with cutting the additional hole, I've brought my humidity down to the mid 60's -low 70's. I took Spot out today to tend to his cut and his scales are still sloughing off individually. His eyes are clear and glossy, his belly is slightly pink like he is starting to go into shed but that's the only indication. I soaked him a little bit and took a wet washcloth to him.

So, has this happened to anyone's snakes before? What are the ramifications of him shedding individual scales prematurely instead of shedding his skin sheath like he is supposed to?

Again, thanks for your help and advice!
