I've had my snake for two weeks now, and about three days ago her eyes turned a milky colour and her skin started to dull, so I thought she must be getting ready to shed. But now her eyes and scales are their normal colour again, and there's no shed skin in her tank, I'm not sure what happened with her. Any help?

ok, thank you, I was worried I did something wrong.

Also, its been nine days since I last fed her, should I feed her again, or wait for her to finish shedding?

if shes cleared i'd wait cos sonnys just finished and he refused his meal, i think it might be cos he realised if he eats he might still have a full tummy and might not be able to do it when the time comes, but its completely up to you

I think she's about 1.5 feet long, I tried to measure her when I got her, but she doesn't like to stay still. She only a couple months old, and is eating pinkie mice.

Hi and welcome to the forum :) It won't hurt to offer a feed and leave it up to your snake to decide if they want it or not. NOTHING stops Corno feeding lol!!
