Re: snake shed again...
Sometimes the head gets stuck with the rest of the skin and so will look like it is missing. Also sometimes sheds aren't perfect. Not because of improper care...just cause it happens. As long as the shed isn't coming off in small patches, or has areas that aren't coming off at all you are probably okay
Also pictures of your snake after a shed would be awesome. They are sometimes their most stunning right after a shed

the easiest way to see if the heads not shed is to look at the eyes for retained eye caps
it is entirely possible his head has not shed
that said the head may have shed and so far you've yet to find it in his tank

Re: snake shed again...
his head seems nice and shiney in the picture
usually un shed areas appear dull due to the old skin still being in place
cheers shaun
