Don't worry about it. After the milky stage they go back to looking normal for a few days and then shed. Your snake is just in the "clear" stage and will shed soon enough.

He's most likely fine. My rosy boa takes FOREVER to shed after the 'milky' stage. Just be sure you keep the humidity high while he's in shed and he will be fine.

It is normal for them to wrap it up and poop in it. Look him over and as long as he looks all shiny and new he is fine. Feed him whenever he is due to eat.
