sounds more like she is about to shed with her eyes going blue and the coulor dulling down her eyes will clear up and then in a few days she will shed

Sounds like pre-shed, especially with her eyes changing.
Have you noticed anything in her water that might suggest mites, little flecks or anything? Has she been laying in her water bowl at all?

He is certainly coming upto a shed, but don't rule out the mites just yet because sometimes snakes will shed because of the mites.

Have a good look in his faun and see if you can see them. If you are unsure it might still be worth treating him as if he did have mights.
