Your last comment tells me you don't believe that shedding is 100% dependant on husbandry.
Snakes are born to shed in one piece. They do it from a week old to the time they eventually die. For decades this holds true. Snakes don't shed bad because they suck at it. They shed bad because requirements are not met. That is on us for to supply that.

Unfortunately, a lot of people in the hobby don't want to admit their mistakes and just blame the snake. Not saying this is you, it just so happens this is a common myth.

My bad XD as you can see by my signiture, I'm glad you corrected me thanks. having good sheds should still suggest a healthy snake(or at least healthy living conditions) right?
