Ok my little female BP Prana went into shed....well I checked on her last night and her eyes are clear and her skin is not milky, belly's not pink.....etc....etc....all the signs that she had a good shed....but I looked everywhere in her cage and there is NO shed! No Skin, no nothing!!! Does anyone have any idea what happened to the shed? Is it possible that she ate it. Or that I kept it so humid in there that her old skin just stretched out? This one really has me stumped!

usually after the eyes have gone milky and then go back to normal the skin will do the same. she just hasnt shed yet.
how long has it been since her eyes were milky?
my snakes usually shed the skin around 3-5 days after the eyes and skin go back to normal.

I know that they may wait awhile after the eyes clear up to shed, but I don't see shiny skin until the shed comes off

1 day....my male bp never does that, his eyes go milky and thats it, a few days after that he sheds....his eyes never clear up during a shed, only after he sheds....

HetForHuman is right, I have the same with my female BP and usually after 2 days she sheds.
Have a little more patient and you'll see :)

Our BCI takes up to a week after his eyes have cleared up to shed. Nothing to worry about.
