Well I sat with him yesterday for about an hour and successfully got his shed off. I had a wet washcloth (lukewarm water, not too hot too) that I just let him slither through. I didn't want it to take longer than what I'd normally handle him, but by the time he got everything to the tip of his tail off it had been an hour. I'm worried what handling him for that long especially when he was stressed to begin with will do. I'm definitely going to be leaving him be for at least a week or so. He's due to eat today or tomorrow so I'll hope for the best on that.

Thanks so much for the help guys. I've scrapped the heat lamp and I've got a thermostat on order =] Hopefully he'll be a happy little snakey soon! Now if only I could think of a name for him. If he were a girl, Pixie Dust was what I was going to name him/her...but I gotta go get him sexed JUST to be sure haha. Dr. Leary is my 2nd choice I think, but my roommate thinks Ron Jeremy is fitting. It'd be a sad sad day the day I name my snake Ron Jeremy.....
