Stuck shed maybe?

I think her shed got stuck on her food lump :c

The first half is ‘smooth’ with eye caps and all but she slithered through a small hole in her beech/driftwood branch and the top half of the shed got caught on it and tore off. She’s still got on the lower half of her shed skin on, seems to be stuck right around the mouse lump in her belly.

She’s working really hard slithering on everything to work it off and it is moving down a bit here and there but very slowly. She doesn’t seem agitated, when I check on her she comes up to look at me and flick her tongue.

She ate a 1.5 gram pinky yesterday and she only weighs at 8 grams. I cannot get her to give her a bath because the threat of regurgitation I feel is pretty big. I misted her enclosure and humidity was up to 60%.

I have faith she can complete it on her own but then again I am a beginner and I don’t know if she’s truly stuck and I have to find some way to help her!

Thoughts?

All is well. I was able to get the rest VERY CAREFULLY with a wet paper towel. No regurge, happy girl!
