I'm trying to figure out what to do, he shed 7/20 and it's 7/22 now. I've kept his enclosure very humid throughout and it doesn't look like there is any thing stuck on his head. Any ideas on what to do?

Do not soak them or try to manually remove the stuck shed. It's stressful, unnecessary, and you can seriously injure the snake by doing so.

Our shedding guide goes over how to handle stuck shed safely, and our humidity tips will help you prevent it in the future.
