My red-tails skin seems dry and stiff, HELP

Recently my Red-Tails skin has seemed kind of dry as some of the scales seem bent back and when I pick her up my hands just don't glide over her scales anymore the scales get caught on my hands. Know scales are coming out or anything . I just want to know why this might be happening . I'm pretty sure nothing is to wrong her because she is always moving about her cage and is always flickering her tongue in the air. I know snakes will not eat if they are sick or feel bad and she ate yesterday. Her skin has been like this for about 2wk's now. I thought maybe she is getting ready for a shed as it would be about the right time. I have never misted the cage on a regular basis and thought that maybe not enough humidity could be the problem . Anyway if anyone could help me i'd appreciate it.

Thanks, BIG SCOTT
