the pic could be photoshopped.
on the eating its skin. i dont belive it would be a health problem, but im not a herp vet.
would suggest removing the skin soon as it sheds if possible or placing a F/t in the cage each day during the shed cycle so an alternative will be there to eat. though you could waste 4-5 f/t that way. could be worth trying once to just condition the snake into not eating the skin and that food will be on the way if he will just wait
