Stop worrying mate
They take thier time and the snake is in no danger. 10 days is nothing unusual |

Has he shown any other signs of shedding?
blue eyes, dullness, hiding away a bit more? |

with the colour of Noodle his eyes won't appear 'blue' like other coloured snakes do, they'll go pinker and opaque/cloudy. when the cloudyness clears he'll probably shed within a week. don't panic just yet they usually shed fine, or any problems with stuck shed skin are easily rectified |

It might be humid there which is good for shedding. Have his eyes clouded over at all?

If it makes you feel any better Ginger shed last night and it's been 10 days since her eyes went cloudy. Perfect shed too. They just get on with it when they're good and ready. |

Question about feeding during shed. If you feed your Snake with its usual routeen can it slow down the whole shed thing with having to lie in warm end for 2days to digest, coz my snake has become fond of lying under the water bowl.. |

Many people feed thier snakes during shedding as most corns will still eat. I dont bother because it wont do 'em any harm. As for slowing it down, I have never thought about that, but I wouldnt of thought it would. |
