Hi. My brother recently got a ball python. (about a month and a half ago) To my knowledge everything was going ok until about a week or two ago. At first we noticed that the snakes eyes started to get foggy, which we know that is a sign of shedding, but the snake never shed and a few days later his eyes cleared up. The snake also hasn't eaten anything in 2 weeks. He is young (don't know exactly how old he is), so is it normal for him to not eat often? Also, I'm not sure if he has gone over to his water dish recently, is there a chance he could get dehydrated? If so, would misting him help him not become dehydrated? Any help/advise is greatly appreciated. This is the first snake my family has had (always had lizards and turtles) so we are new to them. Thanks in advance!!
