Shedding

[greeneyz06]

I just got a blood python this saturday, when I was leaving with her they stopped me and told me that she was in blue phase (shedding). This will be my frist shed with the blood pythons. If anyone can give me some good advice on the best way to help her shed I would appreciate it. Right now her tanks humidity is at 80-85%, and im changing her water out twice a day to make sure its clean. I have attached a photo of her...

as long as you got everyting dialed in right you should be ok. It never hurts to put a hide in there, like a plastic sweater box and lay some damp moss in it

As long as everything is cool.. it should be cool. Bloods are kinda unique in the fact that they don't really shed very often and they take awhile to do so. Even after your snake goes out of blue it will still take a couple days usually for them to shed. If your snake is consistently having problems upping the humidity during shed time can help or throwing in a damp towel when there about to shed helps too.

Nice little guy, hope you enjoy!
