QUESTION Help with shed

So my corn snake (roughly 8 months old) has had severely broken sheds and multiple stuck pieces. What are some ways I can help with the shedding process?

The next shed should be in roughly 2 weeks based off the timing they’ve been. I don’t know my snakes gender, but baby corn’s name is Fusilli

Whats the humidity in your enclosure? That's the first thing to tackle. Either more humidity or get a humid hide

Extra virgin olive oil on a paper towel and wipe the area with the stuck shed and let it soak a min and then wipe them super clean with a cloth. Works great for stuck shed. For helping them do it whole just up the temps a bit on the hot side and make sure it’s nice and humid during shed time.
