Help  Did you notice a color difference in it eyes did they get clowdy? Thats most likely what it is. My King doesnt like to be touched when she is going to shed if i put my hand n she will shove against it with her side has yours lost its appetite they will do that often before a shed. There is alot of info on the net or go to a library and read some more books on them and find someone around like a breeder or anothre owner or if worst comes to worst you can go to Petland.

Help  Also keep a bowl of water with it enough that she can get her body it that will help the shed and i think it makes it a bit more comfortable for them.

 Yeah usually my GBK always soaks in water for like 2 hours and then he usual will shed later that night, you can always tell especially with a GBK when hes gunna shed cause his colors are always really bright, yet when its shedding time well ya know.

Help  trust me it isnt unusual for a first time snake keeper to get excited over the first shed. i still have my first snakes first shed. i was lucky, he shed after i gave him a bath so i didnt have to wait long before he shed
