Normal shedding behaviour?

Since I brought Mushu home Dec 14 he has shed twice. Both times he has shed inside of his hide. Now after each time I noticed he completed his shed I picked him up and examined him and both times it's been a complete shed, eye caps, tail tip etc. Is this normal for a snake to shed inside his hide? His cage has wood and a rock to rub on. It's a PVC cage and during the day only sunlight from a small window near by illuminates the room. This is my first snake and I'm used to seeing snakes in the open shedding their skin.

All snakes are different so him shedding inside his hide is nothing to worry about :)

Okay thanks, I thought a complete shed even if out of the ordinary should be a good thing. Haven't had to soak him to get skin off. Being new to herps in general figured better to ask and confirm.

It took days after the first shed to realize he did it. I didn't want to bother him so only checked in once a day to look for skin. Sneaky bugger did it in his hide. Now I'm on to him and his tactics.
