Shedding Issue?

PansyPerfect

Demonic Dreamer
Well, Her eyes began to fog over like they do.. And I left her alone for two or three days And checked on her yesterday her eyes were back to normal But i searched her whole tank for her skin. And shes still a really dull ashey color.. And shes REALLY grumpy She did her little "TSST" and tried to get me lol (best I can desribe it :p) But is she going to shed soon because today is the day she is meant to be fed.. Just curious.. Answers would be great :]
 
she may or may not shed today. After being blue they typically clear up for a couple days before they start to shed.
 
She should be shedding soon, but it might be another day or so. I would refrain from feeding her until after she sheds. She would likely refuse anyway and would have an increased chance of regurgitation if she did eat.
 
I agree with the above comments. I would also like to add

if you can give her a moist hide (moist moss box or box with damp paper towel) make sure the humidity is adequate in the viv by misting it a little if needed. This helps ensure a good shed.

Maybe, maybe not.

Boo will always take food and has never had trouble shedding or digesting while in blue/about to shed.

Mouse will never take food before a shed and I'm willing to bet she'd throw it up if she did.

Not a risk I'd be willing to take unless they have a good history of doing it, frankly.
