Ok, I have a 2 ft Dumerils Boa, and I've had him for about 2 months now. I know they are slow growers, and slow eaters typically, But this guy eats like a champ. Never refuses a mouse. but Last week I noticed he went into Shed mode for the first time since I've had him. My other little girl sheds regularly, and does the... eyes cloud over, and then clear up and in a few days cloud over again and she sheds. Like clockwork... same for my ball pythons, king snakes, corns, and red-tails. But 2 weeks ago, he clouded, and cleared up then he clouded and stayed clouded... I thought maybe he was just a slow shedder? Idk... he's still clouded over, and its been over a week now. I'm worried... He doesn't have any peeling skin, I gave him a warm bath, and I've treated him with a shed aid... I don't know what else to do, short of trying to just start his shedding by trying to start peeling his skin for him off his nose and head....? Please help
