Hi my Smeagol only shedded once since i got her but the beginning of this week she started showing all symptoms milky eyes loss of colour lethargic etc, made sure she had damp moss in hideout light spraying but have not found any skin but she has returned to normal?

its totaly normal. The snakes will shed shortly after their eyes clear again. |

yes dont worry...they go all dull, blue eyes and lethargic for a few days then go back to being their normal colour. About a week after this they will shed... |

Sofia took almost 2 weeks after turning "normal" again before she shed. |

from their eye's clearing shedding within a week is normal but don't panic if it does take a little longer -like Dazzetski's Sofia (above)  |
