She probably will shed, just give her chance. Try giving her a luke warm bath and submerge her head (obviously only for a second) a few times. x

no dont give her a bath dont do anything the going back to normal is part of the shedding process, you will have a nice freshly shed snake in a day or so. This is normal. Maybe ad a damp hide if you wish but dont do anything else its not necessary
