Update on Copperhead with bad shed...Thanks guys, it worked.

Sorry for the delay. I just had a chance to try your suggestions today. And didn't wanna thank anyone for the help too soon without trying it first. Wanted to have some results to show for it. That never even occurred to me to try the box with wet towels. Someone said about tub soaking not working. It works if you can assist the shed. Obviously can't do that with a venomous animal. Anyway, it worked great. After I put her in, she had it completely off in about 2 hours. Not as ugly anymore either. Still skinny as hell though. I'm gonna try feeding her now. Maybe the clean shed will make her more willing to eat. She must think she's a cottonmouth now too. When I saw she had it off, I opened the box and she got all pissy. (Like she always does, bad attitude.) And I smelled that nasty musk smell that I haven't smelled since the last time I had cottons. Anyway, thanks again. Here are some pics. By the way, anyone now how to post multiple pics in the same post? I know it can be done, no idea how though. Ryan.

I forgot to mention, I noticed the entire top of the forum was deleted the other day, including my original post. I couldn't figure out what was up with that.
