i bought a radiated rat snake in Daytona and they said he would be shedding in a couple days. yesterday night he began but he only got the head off and then forgot he had to shed the rest. today i took him out to try to help him and he bit me good. anyways how can i get that shed of without stressing him because he is so little i don't wanna hurt or stress him. she has a humid shed box and i sprayed him down. thanks in advance pics to come after he sheds

1. Wet down a pillowcase
2. Wet down a towel and place in pillowcase
3. Place snake inside. Tie a knot in pillowcase
4. Place pillowcase into the enclosure to stay warm
5. ???
6. Profit
