Shedding Question

Last week i noticed my ball python's eyes turn blue, great i though, he's about to shed, so i upped the humidity and misted and soaked him twice a day. A few days later his eyes cleared up and i thought, okay any minute now he's gonna shed. It's been a week and he still hasn't shed. Am I doing something wrong? He's got wood in there that he can rub against, but nothing is happening. Thanks for any and all advice!!

Brian

As I've discovered with my boa, after the eyes clear up it can take anywhere from a week to two weeks before they actually shed. Keep doing what you're doing with the misting & humidity, and your BP will shed as soon as it's ready.
