If by "murky" you mean milky blue then yes, your ball python is going into shed. Balls usually take anyhwere from 7-14 days to shed. I wouldn't offer food until it has shed.

Very few balls will eat while in shed, if you have no one else to eat the rat/mouse if he refuses then wait until after he sheds. I have 2 that will eat regardless but that is out of 20.

so your saying that between 7-14 days it should shed. and dont try to offer it any food until it shed.
