To feed, or not to feed?

I am thinking Nightmare may be about to shed. I saw him going into his hide with his wet moss a couple of times, and his eyes seem a little dull, but not really blue yet. His eyes were very blue last time. It was really cool to see. Since it seems too early to tell yet, am I fine to just go ahead and feed him like I normally would? I know it can cause digestion problems to feed during a shed, and I don't want to cause problems, but I also don't want him to skip a meal if it's unnecessary.

If I notice the initial dullness I tend to not feed... Once I was wrong though.. Usually they shed about 4 weeks apart when was last time he shed?

It has been over 4 weeks. I didn't feed him. I decided not to take a chance. He has been less active, and not coming out much, which is what he did last time he shed. I will just keep an eye on him, to be sure. Thank you.
