Re: Worries

How much does she weigh?
What have you been offering her? Mice? Rats? F/t? Live? In the enclosure or outside of it?
You mentioned bad sheds- what's the humidity % in her enclosure?
Temps should be 87ish on the hot side (you mentioned mid/low 80s, so bump that up).
You mentioned she has paper and water dish in the enclosure. Does she have two hides?
If she's eating every 3 weeks, there is no need to assist feed. This is VERY stressful, especially for young snakes, and isn't necessary unless the snake is young or very, very thin. In my honest opinion, don't assist feed anymore. Keep offering food every 10 days and keep good records of her eating pattern. It would help if you could give us the current weight of your snake too.
