Duh, just look at the shed skin. Are the eye caps and everything visible in the shed?

Is all the skin from the head off? Check the shed and see if there are pieces missing. A freshly shed snake’s eyes should look like black marbles.

soak him in room temperature water for a few minutes to loosen it up. Then let him slither through a towel to dry off and hopefully take off some left over skin. Don’t soak him too often though. You don’t wanna stress the little guy out, lol.

do i soak her head too? i doubt she would like that. its weird cause her whole shed came off in 1 piece but her head doesnt look as shiny as her body... and very top of her eye isnt a black marble. sorta foggy.think maybe her eye is too dry?

When I soak my bp, she rarely bobs her head under water so what I do is just push her head under water for a split second, just so it gets wet. Not holding her under water or anything, but you know, giving the top part of her body a little push so her little head bobs under water for a second. I dunno if thats cruel or whatever, but that’s the only way I can get her head wet, lol.If you don’t want to soak, maybe you could keep the humidity up for a few more days to see if it helps. As for the dry eye thing, unless you could take a pic and post it, I wouldn’t know what it would be. I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about though. If it is a stuck piece of skin, it should come off with the next shed.

if the eyes are somewhat "crinkled" or "dented" it might be too dry
