It didn't like my hosting site I guess. Let's try again...
The first two are when I first got her in 2007 and the last is from October I think. The lighting wasn't good, outside she's more blue and I'm sure she'll blue up some more.

I've only had shedding problems once, a stuck eye cap. I wet a towel so it was damp and put it in a rubbermaid tub (and put the snake in the towel) for 20 minutes or so and the eye cap came off. Like Randy said, try a larger water bowl, mist once or twice a day...especially near a shed. You can cover the screen top with tin foil. That, the moist hide and the cypress should help. My Beauty hid a lot as a youngster but she's out at daybreak and then on and off throughout the day she'll be out unless she's just eaten or near a shed. Very secretive eater though, won't eat if she's watched. Cage aggressive, but calms down nicely after I hook her and get her out. She draws blood otherwise!
