i dont know if three feet is just right...sorry. as for shedding...after her eyes go back to normal (just before the shed) give her a warm bath every night until she shed. this helped with mine. and of course a humid hide. mine shed inside his moist hide box just after a warm bath this last time. good luck

:My snake (Saige) had a bad shed her last shed cycle (flaked off the skin). I blame it on myself not giving her enough humidity during her shed cycle. Well she recently went very dull and her eyes are so incredibly blue. I've been spraying her cage down with warm water and laying damp towels (wetted with warm water also) on the screen on the top of her cage (40 gal. breeder tank). I got her Janruary 16, 2000. She's now a little over 3 feet, is this normal? I went to the pet shop to get her food but when I got home I was suprised by her colors, so she has a rat in the freezer waiting for her when she sheds :)
