First of all it has not been long enough to be concerned about a fully retained shed. Sometimes they go opaque and then go clear for several days before shedding.



Retained sheds are most commonly caused by one of two things. Dehydration/lack of humidity and stress. Since your snake is drinking I would doubt that it is dehydration. You could up the humidity but from the other problems you have had with this snake I would say that it is more likely a stress issue.



I get concerned when I hear about snakes with mites, URI, parasites, and shedding problems all one right after the next. These are not things that just happen to healthy snakes because of bad luck. These are opportunistic infections (except the mites) that take advantage of a snake that is already compromised by another issue (usually husbandry related). If you provide some detail about your husbandry we can help find the problem.



If she does not shed soon I would soak her and then manually remove the shed yourself.
