Very good info there, I may have to try that another method if you are looking for one. If take an old pillow case soak it in warm water then ring it out enough that it isnt dripping. Then put your snake inside and and tie the top closes and put them back in the enclosure on the warm side. Check every half hour and warm the pillow case at that time.

The rubbermaid option looks pretty good,how much does this stress the snake ?? Because iv nt had her long and this is her first shed with me ,dont wnt to stress too much if you get what im saying???

Oh p.s thanks for the help so far....

I'm not a expert I just gots balls myself but my female shed everything but a piece on her head and I put her in a rubbermaid container with luke warm water , and I left her in there for about a hour and when I removed her I was able to just pull the skin off real slowly.

It will do just fine.

That's what the link up above describes. It's one of the best techniques I've used so far for stuck sheds...they do come right off after soaking for a half hour or so
