She is probably going to shed in the next few days. Don’t get upset yet. Get her nice and humid by misting her cage a couple times a day and the humidity in the room somewhere between 50 to 60%. Make sure she has a nice rough surface like a rock to rub against. This will assist her in shedding.

I have seen my snakes go both darker and lighter just before shedding. You may have missed the eyes turning milky.

it really depends on the snakes color, whether they turn darker or lighter (like boas while usually turn a darker)...it looks like you have a red albino...thats what i have...they will go lighter and look kinda pale and sick...only sometimes do i really notice his eyes turn a milky color. So dont worry, and like SCSnakeman said, mist the cage...it will help you determine whether he is going to shed alot sooner.

I have a cream cheese container in my snakes viv with a hole in the side and moss in it. I mist the moss and he loves it. He goes in there when he needs to shed and his sheds come off great.
