Stuck shed patches.
Hello, friends! So, my beautiful new Tanimbar python had a rough shed last week, as well as a bad one at the pet store on July 31. He allowed me (mercifully) to soak him and remove his skin from behind the neck down. Unfortunately, he still has a few patches of stuck shed that remain on his neck. I thought they might just come off on their own, but that doesn't seem to be happening. They're also starting to darken and almost look burned. Any tips on how I should treat them? Or should I just hold off until his next shed cycle, since they seem to be so close together? It's really hard to photograph because of his iridescence and his restlessness, but I've attached some photos for you to peek at, nonetheless. Thanks for the advice!
