white/ cloudy eyes

Hi guys
Thanks for being so helpful to a new snake girl

My IJ has white cloudy eyes as of today. I week to feed her and noticed. She didn't take her rat either. Is she going into shed or is something wrong?

Yep, sounds like pretty typical shed behaviour. How old is your snake and how long have you had it?

Body looks fine doesn't look "sheady"

I got her about 2 months ago now and the guy said she was about 6 months old

Re: white/ cloudy eyes

Sometimes the body isnt as easy to tell, especially on young snakes. Is this the first time it will have shed for you? Sounds like it is due for one at that age

Yes it's the first time
Just worried causes I fell in love with her so I bought a ball python about a month ago and she shead a week ago and I noticed the body before the eyes.
The balls eyes also didn't look this white

Re: white/ cloudy eyes

Nothing to worry about, just different snakes. Id increase your humidity a bit in your enclosure when you start to see this happening, but otherwise nothing to worry about at all.

Re: white/ cloudy eyes
