shedding help

My snake started turning cloudy about a week ago so I am assuming she is going to shed. I was wondering how long this process takes until she sheds. I also wanted to know if i should feed her. She has not eaten for about 2 weeks so should i feed her this week or wait for the shed?
Thanks
 
I would suggest offering a slightly smaller meal than usual and seeing if the snake takes it. Sometimes they'll take it during a shed, sometimes they won't.

If your snake turned cloudy a week ago, you should be expecting a shed within the next week or so. It's often hard to tell exactly when that's going to happen, but just be patient.

Similar Thing..........
About a week ago my 4ft corn started to turn 'cloudy'....... and eventually looked almost white.

But now hes back looking his usual brilliant, bright, orange colour, but he hasnt shed!?!?!?!?!?!

I dont understand this?!?!? Its never happened before?!?!?!

Any suggestions people?
 
sounds normal to me dude, i'd say the same as Bobbyhill expect him to shed in the next week. Mine goes really cloudy and then looks normal for a couple of days before the shed.
 
Also look well to make sure you didn't miss it it may be burried. Usually young snakes should be fed every 5-7 days so make sure you are offering properly thawed pinkies that often:)
 
Thanks everyone for ur comments...

he shed not long after i made the post...

one more thing if anyone can help.
I bought my corn from another person who i am no longer in contact with.
He... 'or she' is now just over 4ft long... can anyone give me a rough idea on his age... I havent got a clue!!
