I have an opal corn snake who is a bit overdue for a shed and has flaky skin (little flakes of skin every so often on a scale down his back). About 3 weeks ago he looked like he was in blue (although it is super hard to tell with him). He has since come out of blue but still no shed.

Should I give him a bath to try to hopefully help him start shedding?

Thanks,

Did you try a humid hide? My snake had some skin that was kind of flaking off... I was suggested to try a humid hide with some moss and she went right in.. In less than one day her flaky skin was all gone and she shed perfectly one day later.
