My little 4 month old has been super wrinkly for a week now. i mean, sometimes my buddies get wrinkly before they shed, but this is exceptional. on top of that, she isn't even *trying* to shed- she's just sitting on her perch and not moving around. most of my snakes are very inactive before they shed, but i know that GTPs are so sensitive and i am worried.
i took her out and she seemed out of it, when before she has been so sweet, alert, and friendly.
i have read countless sites, have put her in a container with wet towels, mist her 2-4 times a day. she ate very recently, so at least that seemed ok.

is there something wrong or do i need to be more patient? i might take her to the vivarium tomorrow to have her looked at.
