One of the first signs is their belly will get a pinkish tinge to it, followed by their color fading, and their eyes getting a milky sheen to them. The lighter colored the snake, the harder it is to tell when they're in shed, at least it is to me, but when my Brazilian Rainbow goes into shed, the color difference is startling

It doesn't fall off in pieces. It'll come off all in one piece, actually (if the shed is 100% successful).

This is a photo of a snake mid-shed...



and this is the shed completely off...



Signs that your snake is about to shed...

- rosy/pink belly
- milk/blue/grey eyes
- duller coloring
- dryer skin

Then she'll look fine for a few days, as if nothing happened. It's confusing... but a few days after that she'll have shed! So you'll see the signs, then they'll disappear, and then she'll shed.
