As far as I know, there are no reasons to not feed a snake while he's in shed (some snakes do get stressed) but allot of snakes take food while in shed without any complaints. Every snake I have ever owned always take food while in shed.

Nice, you might want to save those full sheds, once you get a few give some schools a call, they love taking skins off your hands to use in reptile discussions.
Ontario usually teaches their kids about reptiles in grade 7-9.

Err, not sure you should maintain his humidity that high, we tend to keep the himidity more or less stable, and when they are in shed we give them a large water dish to submerge themselves in if they choose to, some snakes don't thrive in high humidity.
(not 100 on ball pythons)

Not 100% RH for any snake or they'd be swimming...

Just a spray bottle with water in it, keep it in his enclosure 100% of the time, at the warmer end, so you aren't spraying him with liquid ice:P (the temperature of the water will be close enough to his temperature to not startle him too much)
