Some will eat when shedding, some not. I have heard here not to feed when your snake is in shed, but I always have offered food every 7-10 days, even when he's blue, and he takes it np. Other than that, keep them humid so there isn't a problem with shedding (ie:humid hide box or misting)and let them be. 
I have a BP, and he's never managed to shed in one piece, no matter what I do, it seems.

The snakes eyes will cloud over, and look "blue". Then, they will return to normal color and they should shed within a few days after that. Totally, shed lasts for 5-10 days.
