Hi guy's i had to leave hiss at home over the weekend as I had to go away. I've come back and she seems very sluggish not really moving around the tank. Her eyes have glazed over gone a kind of cloudy blue colour and she's very dull looking so I think she's shedding. Is there anything I can put in the tank to make her more comfortable? |

I would just leave her alone, unless she has a history of poor shedding if so I would add damp moss hide but if she has shed well before just do nothing. |

If her eyes are blue then she's shedding and theres nothing to worry about :) If you want to make things more comfortable for her, some sphagnum moss in one of her hides to slightly increase the humidity will help her to shed more easily.
Although in saying that, all my snakes shed in one piece, unassisted, every time.
In all, I would say not to worry as its a completely natural process that won't distress her :)
Hope this helps |

My snake looks a little glum when she goes through the shedding process. Don't worry, once she busts out that skin, she'll perk up. |
