    If you just got this snake on Wednesday (2 days ago), then the bad shed is probably an after-effect of poor husbandry before you got it.

    As for how to deal with a bad shed, check out this thread...

    where ever you got her from had a very low humidity enclosure for her. Follow the soaking instructons and you should be fine.
    poor guy, thats alot for a new arrival.

    you will be fine after soaking, just make sure you are patient and leave him in for enough time.
