The shed skin becomes fragile when too wet, my snakes sheds rip all the time when they are too wet or dry. Probably should not have given him a bath and messed with him too much.

I just thought it was weird because from all the shedding videos I have seen they came off in one big piece, by itching it off or something. And I heard if it is to dry they flake off. But it was not the case (I thought it was something in between...) this time so I thought I did something wrong... I haven't handled him since and won't handle him for a couple days now...
