Hi I have just checked slink to see if I could catch her shedding and at first thought I had timed it brilliantly and would be lucky enough to view it but on closer inspection the shed is broken. There is a bit stuck on her head (eyes look like they have come off) and then there is a bit coming off another 4 inches down her body but again is not coming off in one piece. I hope that I am over reacting and she gets it all off in time but if not what should I do?!
Any advice will be appreciated

Thanks for the help, slink managed to get all but about 2-3 inches off of the tail but I think I have managed to get the rest off using the method you mentioned above. I am going to check again in the morning to make sure it was all gone and will post some pictures up of her to show off her bright colours :)
Thanks again for your help

Im no expert at this but if it doesnt come off, dampen a flannel in warmish water and let slink slither through while applying a small ammount of pressure (do not squeeze slink tho :p) that should do the trick, when i say warmish make sure the water is lukewarm :)
