Hi, I've looked through the forum but couldn't find anything quite like this.
Pop (Female cornsnake)shed only 2-3 weeks ago yet she seems to have started the shedding process again!
Her eyes have clouded over, she's gone a really dull colour and she isn't feeding. She's also got a cut (I think) on her back from trying to escape behind the toilet. I've been treating this with an iodine based product after reading in the forum but have temporarily stopped due to the possible shedding.
Any help would be so appreciated!!
Thanks!!!

totally agree with G above ^^

if the wound is still open then yes, keep using the Tamodine/Vetadine/iodine, if it's dry and scabbed over then you don't need to

Brilliant, thanks! I was so worried about her. Do you think I should keep using the iodine solution?

If she has a cut this is why she will be shedding again, they try to sort themselves out so will shed more often till it clears up.
